Is Pascal's on Napoleon still around?
Before anyone succumbs to this clever deception, check out this guy's other posts...especially the one about his used gum collection.
The media always looks for worst case scenario and reports it as if the entire town had that same situation. We had flooding in my Indiana town this summer, and that was certainly the case on all news/newspapers. Don't always believe what the media reports, sensationalism is the word that comes to mind.
Yeah, like years ago when one of my siblings lived in southern Australia, and the media were reporting on the massive wild fires that were going to inundate whole towns and cities, and there was nothing that could be done. They reported that the city my sib lived in was a sure thing to go up in smoke in a matter of hours! We called her to find out what was happening, and she said that "yes, there are wild fires" but they were no where even close to her town, and that they were dying out anyway. Besides all of the structures in her area were masonry....brick & mortar....cinderblock...poured concrete....etc. Wood and combustible materials had been banned for many years from building construction.
I know what you mean...our neighborhood creek is about the same size! Our small river is about 200' wide, and our big river (commercially navigable) is about a quarter mile wide. Of course, when they show pictures of either of these 2 rivers in visitor propaganda, they're such a beautiful shade of blue....instead of the true slime/muck greenish-brown that actually are!
