This is going to a wild year
Food for thought: Beryl hits Florida as strongest May tropical cyclone in more than a century
Radar rainfall estimates are already 3-4 inches in some areas across northern Florida.. Hopefully all will be safe.. Holidays and hurricanes are not a good mix
A fatal police shooting involving a naked man and cannibalism. Stuff of movies? No. Stuff of Memorial Day weekends in Miami? Yes, this year at least..
Details are starting to be revealed about the disturbing event today in Miami in which a naked man was chewing the face off of another naked man on a busy highway .. A bicycle rider, Larry Vega, flagged down cops.. the rest is documented by NEWS 7 in Miami:
When the attack continued, Vega says the officer fired but the man continued to chew flesh off the victim. The officer fired several more times, eventually killing the attacker.
A Miami Herald surveillance camera caught the aftermath as the two men laid side by side on the ground. “It was just a blob of blood,” said Vega. “You couldn’t really see, it was just blood all over the place.”
Rescue crews rushed the victim to Jackson Memorial Hospital with missing flesh. According to a 7News source, the victim was not recognizable.
Vega says both the men, who have not been identified, appeared to be homeless and he believes the attacker may have been on drugs. “He looked like he was on something,” he said. “Either he was really psychotic or he was on crack.”
Not something you’d expect to see everyday.. or any day.
Horrible beyond belief..
Is it me or is the world going absolutely insane?
But here’s the best:
Martini, writing in an Italian newspaper, said the pope had been “betrayed” just as Jesus was betrayed 2,000 years ago, and that the Church would have to emerge from the latest scandal cleaner and stronger.
Just as Jesus was betrayed…?
So I just want to know which Cardinal is going to give the butler the noose so he can, say.. “end it himself”…?
Thank God for rest stops (Few people of much sense are Ever appreciative of rest stops…but bad weather suddenly changes that)
Hope your Memorial Day travels are filled with sun and fun.. And if not be careful out there…
The weather outside indeed will be frightful..
So are YOU ready for months worth of scary tornadoes, hurricanes, winds, and rain? … I don’t think I am.
A follower of mine, NotEntirely, (and you should follow the site) said:
weather’s been weird lately out here, looked a lot like this for the last two days.
A few Twitter followers have also updated me on their fears of this season.
Is it just something we are feeling? Because I am feeling it. I am not weather vane or predictor or prognosticator, and the wonderful folks at the National Hurricane Center, Accuweather, and the Weather Channel would mop the floor with me on my weather knowledge.. But something deep down just makes me think this year will be one we will want to remember but will not be able to. Hope I’m wrong. Maybe I am. But if I’m not, as always, better safe than sorry. Prepare for the worst, expect the best. The reality is somewhere in the middle.
