Our Father is tenderly watching over them.

Thanks for the prayers.

I’ve heard of freezing fog. Rough stuff.

Freezing fog occurs often in Alaska.

FEMA failed! This is a travesty! I’ve had enough the failed Obama policies of the past nine days!

I can never understand why this country doesn’t convert to underground electic lines.

Because the cost is 8~12 times when first installed. Because the cables are insulated and in the damp, they have a much shorter life than aerial cable.

When there is a failure, it takes much longer to find the fault and much longer to repair.

I live in Western KY. I cross over the Mississippi River into southeast Missouri for work. I’ve got power here at the office, but not at home. My town looks like the Air Force carpet bombed it. There’s literally not a tree in the country that hasn’t had its top broken out. I don’t expect to have power at home for a week.

Hope you all get your power back on soon.

Obama should have had it done by now. He is a MISERABLE FAILURE!
