‘A nasty nightmare’: Homes in California, Utah invaded by prickly tumbleweeds again

Something I’ve never heard of, people stuck in their homes because of tumbleweeds. Lol.

What movie is that?

The 1983 Twilight Zone movie. The episode, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, with John Lithgow. He was fantastic in the part.

How's the sugar levels? A big guy on my route had that weight loss surgery and he said all his sugar levels went back to nomal.
No meds needed. Apparently, that is a side effect from the procedure.

Does anyone else get this movie in their mind when hearing about the Southwest flight that had an engine blown in air yesterday? Lol.

I hate flying but it is safer than driving.

I had type 2 diabetes and took meds for it for probably 15 years. My dr. took me off the meds about 9 months ago. My glucose is within 80-95 now for every checkup.

Work calling? This is a case where caller ID comes in really handy.

I went to a new location yesterday. Hung something BIG. Fought it for maybe 30 seconds, but it got off. I'm thinking it was a big catfish.
