Those folks ...The ex was from Alabama. Sylacauga.<br /><br />Those folks in the south just panic when a little white falls.<br /><br />I remember in '78 when we were still married and living just outside Memphis in MS, the blizzard hit. The city was shut down for a week. Only people who could get around was us yankees. <br /><br />When I moved back to Ohio I said never again south of the Ohio river..<br /><br />Have fun Mike we miss you here in central Ohio. We had lower than -10 last 2 mornings.<br /><br />Curmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06667043714679728676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-41057537275931811292014-01-29T09:57:13.881-06:002014-01-29T09:57:13.881-06:00It would be interesting to hear the so-called just...It would be interesting to hear the so-called justification for the inevitable post-emergency howls of 'price gouging!' from those who went, in a panic, to buy from their local store the things <b>they should already have on hand for such an emergency</b>. <br /><br />Especially as the 'average' citizen hasn't been taught Economics 101 and does not know about 'market rationing' where price fluctuations ensure A: Only those who really need a product buy it, B: Panicked buyers don't buy every like item 'just to have it' and C: the person who owns the property, that is, the items for sale, is compensated in accordance with the supply on hand and the demand of the buyers.<br /><br />Observations of the situation across the region give credence to the saying, "There are no victims, only volunteers."<br /><br />Vehicle kits are prudent year round, with the contents reflecting the seasonal requirements for being stranded, to include water, extra clothing, food, and hygiene (like toilet paper or wipes).<br /><br />Just sayin'....The Defensive Training Grouphttp://www.defensivetraininggroup.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-82615301860305784242014-01-29T09:01:56.032-06:002014-01-29T09:01:56.032-06:00This is a product of government manufacturing a fa...This is a product of government manufacturing a false sense of security and safety by its hand. If you think about it - objectively- a no guns sign really isn't any different from a weatherman saying the coast is all clear. <br /><br />The no guns signs lead people to believe there won't be any guns (read criminals). A no worried "forecast" really is exactly the same thing. False sense of security. <br /><br />In both examples, private sector entities tell people "no worries" by forecasting it - really by deeming it so regardless of the reality that no such "Forecast" can ever be valid beyond what they are - wishful thinking guesses. <br /><br />Both, along with other examples, serve ONE purpose. That being forging a sense of reliance upon goverent. Nah, no need to think for yourselves folks. No need to prepare for anything or even look out for your own safety - just listen to what government tells you and what government tells media to tell you. <br /><br />Folks in this country better wake up from their stuper. Folks vote because Obama says its a FACT that global warming is real!!!! Based on the "forecasts" about a century from now - when this incident shows they can't forecadtTOMORROW!!! This from the same fools who think "no guns" signs stop criminals from carrying and abusing guns. <br /><br />I pray that Americans shrug off the sheer ignorance of the world around them.
