Hi Nigel, OK, I guess you were referring to this: Why does TikTok think the Rapture is happening? Local experts explain 1. I do not give a **** what TikTok does; it is a total waste of time. 2. If it were to actually happen ( I really doubt it ), I think I would rather not go. Why would I want to spend eternity with a bunch of religious folks? :) Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, I found this somewhat unbelievable: A third of Oregonians say they couldn’t cover a $400 emergency - oregonlive.com I would suppose that for about 2-3 yrs of my adult life ( the very early yrs ), I might have come close to something like this. Jerry Baumchen

Hi Phil, I do not agree that that is showing real class. IMO the royals should never have given Trump the stage. However, I do agree that is their country to make their own decisions.
