~~~ NOTE FROM CHRIS: ~~~
You've probably heard by now that excessive rains
have caused much flooding in the midwest lately.
TopFive's own Brad Simanek reports that his office has
been completely ruined and until other arrangements
are made, he'll have no place to write Ruminations
while pretending to work. Check out Brad's pictures.
Fortunately, Brad was able to lift his house
and single-handedly move it to the top of a
nearby hill, so his family wasn't threatened.
Others weren't so lucky, and the Red Cross has
had to borrow money to get aid to flood victims.
