Well another predicted date arrived and we had a ferocious thunder storm that evening with heaps of lightning . One bolt hit a large and ancient tree right near her bedroom window blowing the crap out of it ,showering the whole house in splinters.
After that she never mentioned anything about the end was nigh to us.

There was also supposed to have been some 5G/Vax zombie transfiguration around Sept. 25; not sure I've seen any signs of it.  What is odd about a lot of the paranoia surrounding the FEMA phone alerts is that most alerts can be turned off on most phones.  I heard the alert on the radio but I did not get one on my phone.  I have a "Do Not Disturb" option set with custom options.  Ordinarily there are a lot of amber alerts and hurricane/weather warnings that come in on phones around here that I could really do without hearing.  I've been places when a hurricane or tornado warning comes up and everyone's phones (but mine) give off an alarm at the same time.  I think some "super emergency" warnings do always come through though.

Also when I read Richard's post I thought it said Manbird Virus. Now that's something to worry about.
