Doing ok, Harry, but I always have one available. My wife said.. What do we do in the north levee breaks? I said "Head for the pontoon!" No actually there is a lot of water here, but not the flooding they're getting in the more southern states. Alll the run-off has to go somewhere. Here, the fields are flooded, but nobody's houses are underwater that i know of. But the verticle drain pipe at my folks old farm place is 8 ft. high, and at 10PM the water against the levee (which is the lane to the drive way) was over the cap, The Leveee is 10' above ground, and with a 1' drain pipe it still takes a while to drain the water down. That's a lot of pressure on that levee. Hopefully it will be drained down by this evening. so far so good. But I feel it for Ky. So. IN. and portions of Tenn, Mis. etc.. |

How far away from a flooding river are you? I get kidded sometimes about living close to the Bay, but we're 115' above it here. If the water rises 116', I won't be worried about the house, because most of the eastern seaboard will be under water. |

(pronounced, Kay-row) Wrong. It's K- eye row. Funny how Amereecans love to *******ize the english language. It's as funny as watching Leno show just how many stupid Amereecans are out there, with his " Jay - Walking " |

Ask any Egyptian. THEY'VE been saying it that way for 3000 years..... Kinda out trumps your 1800s, dont it. Nope. They Egyptians have been pronouncing the city as al-Qāhira as long as they've been speaking Arabic, and that hasn't been for 3000 years. Here, Let Wiki be your friend. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_language Egyptian is the indigenous language of Egypt and a branch of the Afroasiatic language family. Written records of the Egyptian language have been dated from about 3400 BC,[1] making it one of the oldest recorded languages known. Egyptian was spoken until the late 17th century AD in the form of Coptic. The national language of modern-day Egypt is Egyptian Arabic, which gradually replaced Coptic as the language of daily life in the centuries after the Muslim conquest of Egypt. Scholars group the Egyptian language into six major chronological divisions:[4] Archaic Egyptian (before 2600 BC, the language of the Early Dynastic Period) Old Egyptian (2686 BC – 2181 BC, the language of the Old Kingdom) Middle Egyptian (2055 BC – 1650 BC): characterizing Middle Kingdom (2055 BC – 1650 BC), but enduring through the early 18th Dynasty until the Amarna Period(1353 BC), and continuing on as a literary language into the 4th century AD). Late Egyptian (1069 BC – 700 BC): characterizing the Third Intermediate Period (1069 BC – 700 BC), but starting earlier with the Amarna Period (1353 BC). Demotic (7th century BC – 5th century AD, Late Period through Roman times) Coptic (1st century AD – 17th century AD, early Roman times to early modern times) |
