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.

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 "

You can call it "Care-o" or you can call it "Kay-row" but you don't
call it "Kigh-ro"

And it's been pronounced that way since the early 1800's

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)
