Atlanta Tornado

I have been so busy with the day job, I forgot to mention that my office had been missed by last weekend's tornados by about a block and a half.  Other faculty around here were not so lucky.  Some dorms had their roofs damaged and there was glass everywhere.  The Robinson College of Business is about 4 blocks from the CNN Center which suffered a great deal of damage (mostly blown out windows).

One of my correlations (siblings) lives in the greater Atlanta area and he sent me this picture from his front yard on his cell phone last Saturday.

This is from his house in the boonies.

 

He also got this one from a local TV station.  It is a really interesting picture of the city looking south.

And you know, Mr. Hugo Chavez is a Libertarian

What is wrong with this picture?  Florida Insurance Commissioner McCarty claims he is a conservative Republican.  He must be the kind that believed in Smoot-Hawley and worsened the Great Depression. I am not a conservative Republican, so it is hard for me to say who is and who isn't, but I am pretty sure that there are not too many that would recognize Mr. McCarty as a card carrying member.
