No damage on my side of the 'burbs. Downtown got slammed! A lot of
high rise bldgs had windows blown out, warehouses and homes gutted and
de-roofed, etc.
Bummer! Be thankful. it didn't hit you.


The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has a photo page of the aftermath:

Was it Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson who used to say these storms were
god's wrath being visited upon gays?



Believe it or not, I actually kind of liked Falwell as a preacher. When
he was preaching the bible or delivering a sermon, he was a very
powerful presenter, one of the best, at least in his prime. I loved the
way he could roll his syllables. Maybe that's why I like to listen to
top-drawer southern Black ministers; they really know how to enunciate.
I of course had no use for Falwell's social or political commentaries.
But I always felt his religious underpinnings were sincere.

Robertson is and always has been a complete fraud. He should have been
tarred and feathered decades ago. What a slime.
