Whoa!  It's flooding like a mofo here!  We're still dry, though...yay for a hill!  I think the biggest tragedies right now are the libraries...*sigh*  Our main branch and the university's library are flooded.

Jaimey, that really sucks!  It looks like a mess, was that a river that overflowed or what?

I believe it is the Ohio River, which flows between
Cincinnati, Oh. and Louisville, Ky.


If I am remembering correctly, the highway bridge in the video spans the Ohio River,
so where that video was taken would be within a 1/4 of a mile of the river.

Won't you be my neighbor?" - Fred Rogers

Actually, it wasn't the river, which surprised me as well!  It was just flash flooding that the drain system couldn't handle.  We've had three major weather disasters (I guess that's the word) within the past year...a windstorm from hurricane Ike, an ice storm that pretty much shut the city down, and now the flooding.  They said we had about 6.5 inches of rain in an hour this morning.  Yikes!

Also, the bridge shown is on campus and it's where Eastern Parkway crosses Floyd St...it's about 18 blocks from the river.  :)  It's really close to Churchill Downs.  The campus is in an area of town called Old Louisville that extends north into downtown.

Luckily, school hasn't started yet.  :p  We missed a week for the ice storm!  My apartment's dry!  We're on a hill.  :D  Thank goodness!

I'm okay!  We live on a hill.  :)  It's sunny today.


If a unicorn is eating pasta...who made it?  Can they cook?  Where can I find one to cook for me?

This unicorn cooks. But, I'm afraid this unicorn is taken, too.

I can just see it. New Monty Python movie.
Deals with a classy cooking unicorn who bites fae's sister and gets sacked. by sackers.

Interesting review or is it preview since I haven't seen the movie yet?

I love the Monty Python stuff. If there is to be a new movie, Virginia should def. be one of the Monty Python Players  :laugh:
