A Slow Day
Things will be a bit slow at BMEWS this weekend. Allan went south to stay with family and I will be out with my sister and her husband who came down from New England to visit us.
I will try and post stuff early AM and late PM depending on activities scheduled.

It’s Been A Long Week
Yeah, I’m back from the hurricane-ravaged areas of South Alabama. Finally. For the record, I have several hundred members of my extended family in LA (Lower Alabama) and the Florida Panhandle. Several of them are staying with me this weekend just to get a hot bath and hot food. I’ve got bruises all over my arms and legs from wrestling tree limbs off of roads (and houses). I’m exhausted but I feel good. Helping family and friends is its own reward. It’s too bad Liberals and Democraps don’t feel like doing these kinds of good deeds. They’d rather pass the responsibility off to the government and tax you and me to pay for it. If you REALLY want to understand the difference between Liberals and Conservatives, there you have it. Liberals tend to be self-centered, unreliable, slackers who think government is the answer to everything. In the world I live in, government is the last place we look for when we need help. We rely on each other and our families and friends first. After all, that is what made this country great in the first place wasn’t it?
What are my relatives biggest concern right now? How will Alabama do against Arkansas tomorrow after the Tide lost Brodie Croyle, Bama’s starting quarterback last weekend to a season-ending injury. You gotta love these folks.

Headin’ Out
Allan here. I’m loaded up and about to leave, headed south on I-65. I have $100 woth of bottled water and $100 worth of ice that I need to get moving with. I intend to give it all away to family members who are still without power and to anyone else who needs it. I’ll be back Friday, gang. As Vilmar told you earlier today, I finally found my son late last night and he’s OK. So far, all of my family has reported in without injuries or deaths. I’ll have more on the destruction when I return.
For right now, I want to leave a message for Dan Rather: “Dan, read this! Take heed! I expect you to do the right thing!”

As Promised
Between feeling quite sick, working on the yard, catching up on correspondence, and all other kinds of stuff associated with a return form several days’ absence, I finally got around to going through the almost 300 pictures my son burned on CD for me.
So here are a couple of pictures of the sweet little doll, Trinity. (OK, I’m in one, too! But she’s infinitely cuter.)

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
