Happygolucky4u: I have not had electric in 12 hours. It has been bad here for over 6 hours. Pounding away at us. I am tired. It is dark. The storm has spawned many tornados out. There is flooding. I think the winds should be easing off in the next couple of hours. I DO NOT see me surfing tomorrow. I do see myself starting to fix damages. Mine and neighbors. I heard in South Florida there is 4 million without power. And hearing we might be that way for more than a month. I don't know how much damage I have suffered yet. I decided to sit home alone and I am not going out in the dark. It is dangerous and scary. It can wait till morning. Storm should start breaking up about when it hits zOcala area so other states shouldn't get it as bad. At least I hope not.


Happy: I sure hope you are safe at least, and others are too.
I've been watching these hurricanes and am amazed at their strength.
I have been in a few myself, not fun!
Anyhow, I wish you the best, and stay warmhug



P.S. To all those who were hurt in the storm...sad flower sad flower

Relieved to hear you're weathering the storm, Happy. I just wish you weren't alone and scared in the dark.

Know we've been thinking of you all night and waiting anxiously for news.

hug

ChesneyChrist: Cowards survive wars and cowards thrive in business, luxury, prosperity and wealth are inversely correlated with bravery, honesty and mano o mano. Generally speaking the richer the individual and society the more of a pu**y it is.


Nothing convinces you not to be a hero more than being rich. In addition to that is the genetic. The nature of the baby boomers can be explained by the loss of so many bravery genes in the second world war. But if we maintain peace for 100 years randomness, drift and a change in mating patterns will re-encode bravery into our genes, the race will gravitate towards the golden mean especially as we start to become poorer again. Maximum coward was achieved by the immediate descendants of the cowards who survived wars and their era of unsurpassed prosperity.

The least brave genes + gayest environment = baby boomer. The weak men who inherit good times and create bad times, but the bad times themselves creates stronger men who create good times. There's definitely an overall cycle where humanity becomes more cowardly with every advance, but within this are smaller cycles where some generations are greater and other generations not so great.

Persecution and war create cowards in the long run. Who survives apart from the cowards who survive wars? The Uncle Toms and the Jews who told the authorities where all the other Jews were throughout history- Jews are extremely machiavellian to this very day precisely for that reason. That's what war and persecution select for genetically.

Natural disaster is a little bit more random than war you get the testing circumstances where people come to realise they're brave in ways they never knew but the deaths are much more indiscriminate. When the shelter gets flooded they all drown brave and coward alike.

Anyway, America was at each others throats politically and the opportunity of this disaster is to pull together.

Womens' lib has a role to play, too. Women are attracted to the genes that would defend them best in the jungle which are not necessarily, or even very often, the genes which do well in business or academia.

Future generations will be both braver and more impulsive because of women being able to sleep with who they want to sleep with. The de-civilising nature of feminism, in this day the genes of warriors and thugs do not die in battle they complete Tinder.

With a modest desire for creativity and being an interesting bloke. If a young man is quite civilised and intelligent he becomes more attractive by standing out from the crowd. The balance of the world is to take the bravery of a thug without the banality and combine it with the creativity of a genius without becoming a mincing, nuancing puke.

St Martin was devasted at 95%, St Barthelemy not doing much better. And then, what, are we whining ? Stand strong, brave people believe in future, always. Tears away.

Thanks everyone. We still have a gas and food shortage. But it is getting better. At least the food situation is. I got a hot meal today grin Sadly my home and land suffered a little damage. End of the world. No. Just a mildly inconvenient. They are still restoring power. And now the roads are clogged with people coming back laugh Sadly they are finding out when the news says gas shortage they aren't joking. I still don't know why I was compelled to stay and ride this thing alone. My family and friends tried to get me to change my mind. But my gut told me I needed to stay home alone. Life is good. The storm came the storm left. Everything will work out. It always does. angel

Maybe you and others who stayed left room for those more vulnerable to leave.

Glad to here you're okay, have no drastic damage and I hope your privations don't last long. hug
