Had a company picnic in the middle 90's in Chicagoland. Expected about 600 to 800 employees to show. The tent people also supplied the tables and seating. They also had about 40 of these plastic round top tables that could seat 8 people and our company provided the umbrellas for the tables.

Day was going great until 5:30 when a front started coming in. Had a small gust that knock over some trash cans and blew trash. Then a large gust came in and started blowing over unaccompanied umbrella tables. 3 tables to my right a petite girl from HR jumped up on her table and was holding onto the pole to try and close the umbrella. The wind picked her and umbrella up about twenty feet in the air and flew about 30 feet when she landed. Funniest thing I ever saw. Unfortunately when she landed she broke an ankle and dislocated an elbow. We ran over to keep her from getting up until the Medics arrived, and it was obvious her foot was twisted bad and kept repeating I'm OK. When the Tent people set up they forgot to insert a pin in the weighted base for the umbrella. She made bank.

Want to take out the roots and go down 18" to salt the ground to keep it spreading into my yard. I use a chain to cut it down but each year it gets thicker

Kind of related: Has anyone noticed the trains of used vehicles being towed by hispanics across the country on I-10 has slowed to a trickle? I haven’t seen any lately. They must be laying low to avoid ICE.

My Accu-rite crapped out after 7 years of good service. Looking to spend $100to $250. What's the latest and greatest?

Dr. Niel Nortoroberto. Took care of cataracts and installed lens. Just had my annual check up in October. Both eyes are still at 20/20 after 8 years and 5 years. Highly recommend. Sure he can help or recommend another MD

Same here.

I got this as a joke gift for Christmas 2019, plus three additional roles. Best purchase my wife ever made. Easily made it through the TP crisis.
