    1000 year storm.

    The OM is skeptical. We need to see the recorded rainfall data from 1022 for confirmation.

    Like they're finding these ancient things, well placed things and even towns, at some rivers that are lower than they've been in awhile, which would indicate to us anyways, that the rivers were once that low, and this could be cyclic. Again The OM wants to see the rainfall data from 2022 B.C. to be sure.

    I'm getting two days off in a row. Mrs Kemo normally doesn't want me to do anything when I get just one day off as I need to rest and relax. But two days in a row has got her looking at that #### list. Fortunately, we've had a lot of tain in the last few days so I can't do much in the yard.
    I have to get my DOT physical tomorrow. Think this may be my last one.

    Yes, the Dallas Morning News reported it was a ONE THOUSAND YEARS FLOOD. However, when reading this my Bull #### detector was firing off at an extreme red alert. So, looked at the reporters source of the mythical 1000 year flood and it was from or States chef climatologist who said it could be 1000 year flood or 100 year flood a 50 year flood or maybe even just a 20 year flood. Yes that was the climatologist exact quote but the reporter being a reporter not interested in the truth and wanting to push an angle of climate change jumped on the headline 1000 year flood. Now just jumping into where the reporter got his quote from, I also looked at the Army Corps of Engineers site where they track the peak levels of the Trinity river for the highest crest amount in feet. Now the information from website show that back in 1989 we had a crest of 42 feet in 1990 we had another crest of 46 feet (that one beat the 1906 flood) now the crest level for the supposed 1000 year flood came in at 35 feet. therefore I only have one conclusion on how this made it to the Dallas morning news is they hired a reporter from Austin Texas who worked At the most liberal paper in the entire state, from the most liberal city in the entire state of Texas.
