I'm working a convention in branson rn and yesterday driving home after 5:00 it was raining and hailing so bad you couldn't see 6 inches in front of you. Had to pull off the side to wait it out. Scary stuff. The highway was flooded in some parts too.

If it turned unbelievers of the miracle to believers then yes there would be quite the uproar, trouble is the faithless and unbelievers will continue to not believe it’s true. That’s the way it’s always been really. Let’s say they came out Sunday with pictures of this lady’s feet with new toes would you believe (assuming you don’t believe it’s true)? I would venture to guess most unbelievers still wouldn’t believe it citing some excuse. Even if they got side by side pics and a doctors note I doubt most people here and in the media would become believers.

Have you tried Sugarfire in town? I don't remember exactly what they carry but I always found it cool that they carried nontraditional sodas and you can buy by the bottle or get it in a fountain.

There used to be a place to get all the sodas on the square but it closed. Now if I want Moxie I gotta go to crackle barrel

Sometimes price cutter has it in their seasonal section

I mean I think it’s probably a great idea to give a kid correct information than to teach her the Czech Republic and Slovakia are one Soviet controlled country. Or not have any reference to 9/11. Or miss out on real fun facts like dinosaurs didn’t actually go full extinct and remain as birds and that dinosaurs has feathers and not leather skin. Sooooo I mean information is powerful.

To me that just sounds like unnecessary infrastructure, they should focus on making our current roads better (condition wise) and if people really wanna get organized? They should learn how to drive. My insurance is $295 dollars a month, no cool car, one accident on record which is listed as an act of god. My agent told me the reason mine is particularly high is because I’m a young driver and I live in springfield missouri. I’m from a city with 3-4 times the population, and even then I’ve seen as many accidents in 4 years here than I had in 16 years there.
