When a state is overwhelmed from a disaster (fire, flooding, etc.) it is imperative for other states to lend a hand. This is one example.
Very unfortunately, that is not always how it works. When I served in the National Guard and was activated for the Red River Valley Flood of Spring 1997 flood, the North Dakota Army National Guard Equipment was not allowed to go to the Minnesota side and the Minnesota Army National Guard Equipment was not allowed on the North Dakota side. Seems like there was some "conflict" between the Nationa Guard Commanders.
Each of us soldiers, from both the the North Dakota side and the Minnesota side all had "U.S. ARMY" on our uniforms. But know it looks like there is better leadership and the willingness to help other states.

"I have the redneck edukation" You try bring an incenduary statement out of context, what's your agenda. Many far flung dominant cultures, have an indoctrinating education regime that shall we say is hostile to the idea of a native language or culture. Language and history it would appear are a little shall we say lapse on your intent, or perhaps not, am I speaking to a future politician who is honing skills for the great bureaucracy. Perhaps some latent aryan complex who needs to blossom. You may be well on your way to developing a spaceship mentality, keep up the good work. I believe in present company one had the belief that given a finger on the big red button they would actually push it. A very scary thought. Reply...

If being overweight is being fat, yes I am, but not obese. I believe most everyone could lose a pound or two, don't you? Being overweight causes a lot of problems needless to say. No I don't waddle down the isles in WalMart like I see too many people do, it is disgusting to see where we are going with fast food, aka LARD! My Dad in the nursing home is 92 has a picture on the wall in his room taken back in the 30's of a CCC camp, about 200 men or so. Not one looks like they are overweight, except maybe the cook. We are what we eat! And we eat too much in my opinion. Being a diabetic I know about carbs, most people don't. This country is going down the tube. Our health care system is a mess, think about that the next time you order a BigMac with fries. The next time I see someone too fat to walk around in WalMart and using an electric chair because both of their cheeks weigh about 50 pounds each dragging on the chair wheels smoking I'm, going to remind them that gluttony is a SIN. Say Amen......On the other hand who has that right? You? Me? We are the so-called richest country in the world and we show it. Our Democracy shows it also. The DC trough where they hang out needs to be empty. The War Mongers are always hungry and they will take everything away from the people that feed them, US Peasants. Reply...

Andrew, don't be naive, spelling and the english language are VERY important. Just because a person can struggle and read the jibberish you wrote, doesn't mean that we have the time to decipher and to read that way always.
