Preliminary count indicates 11 tornadoes hit Dallas area Saturday evening,
according to National Weather Service.
That was just the Dallas area.
Weather officials also confirmed tornadoes striking the Texas towns Ovilla, Farmersville and Rowlett - which neighbors Garland. Images uploaded to social media showed a massive tornado near Rowlett and at least one destroyed structure.
sadly, 7 people were killed on this Christmas holiday weekend there.
The tornadoes also killed six people in Tennessee and one each in Arkansas and Alabama, bringing the three-state total to 18.
this is in addition to the people killed by the previous tornadoes a couple days ago.
I hope everyone can see Bridge of Spies.
Did not realize till the end that it was directed by Spielberg and written by the Coen brothers.
Tom Hanks did a wonderful low key acting job, the story is true, and the spirit of the cold war is really captured well.
Best of all, IMHO, it has Mark Rylance, of Wolf Hall fame, as one of the leading characters.
I have a serious crush in his mind and those marvelous soulful eyes.
Someone replaced Donald Trump’s voice with a British accent, and it’s disturbingly genius

Well, Christmas will not be 80 degrees after all, says the fickle weatherman.
It will be 77.
With 65 or higher nightime temps.
We shall dine with the A/C on.
Really does feel weird. I know better than to expect snow, but 77 degrees?????
What does this remind you of?
The only way to stop Trump is to find his Horcruxes.
The hair is definitely one.
We need to find the other 6......any ideas?
Gun training instructor accidentally shoots student...who is a minister.
During the course, ( Instructor) Rushing was using a training gun, a rubber fake with no firing mechanism, said Heather Graves, Modesto Police Department spokeswoman. But as the class was ending, she said, he removed that prop from his holster and replaced it with his real handgun.
About that time, Graves said, a student asked Rushing to demonstrate what to do if attacked by someone armed with a knife. Smith volunteered to portray the attacker in a role-playing exercise.
During the scenario, the instructor drew the firearm and it accidentally discharged, she said. She did not know whether Rushing forgot he replaced the training gun or whether he knew he was drawing the real gun.
Another local firearms safety instructor said that he felt badly for the pastor and the instructor, but that a real weapon never should have been present
