The Nepal flood link is apparently dead, at least when I just tried. Here is a video compilation. Harrowing.

Found it (Facebook, so I was looking at something that someone had embedded). Really incredible:

The videos of the Nepal floods are very graphic. The one I originally saw (which I now can’t find) showed what looked like almost from the beginning where you’re thinking “there’s no way that’s going to get high enough to take out that bridge” and then 60 seconds later there it goes, and then 30 seconds after that: there goes most of the 5 story buildings near it. Here’s the best I can find now:

El-Sayed is a very smart and able man, valedictorian of his undergraduate school (Michigan), a Rhodes scholar, with an MD from Columbia (that horrible Leftist university). Bernie Sanders the socialist has endorsed him.
This makes Abdul an extremely dangerous person for the state of Michigan, and also nationally.

Naming the Nashville airport after Dolly Parton…the FAA tends to establish navigational waypoints with names that reflect local activities or well-known people…they must always be five characters long and are supposed to be pronounceable. In the Nashville areas, they have:

LRETA (for Loretta Lynn), JCKSN (for Alan Jackson) and GRRTH (for Garth Brooks)

On the runway 20L instrument approach, the waypoints are successively:

MRNDA REABA WAYLN CRAMR JUUDD

There is actually already a DOLLY, but it’s somewhere in Kentucky, not sure what that’s about
