The city of Birmingham has been evacuated because of a bomb scare. I feel really freaked out. I live just down the road myself, and I was going shopping there yesterday.

I thought this thread was about Birmingham, Alabama, which is currently under the threat of Hurricane Dennis. Sorry.

So did I. It's funny whenever the Republic of Georgia gets attacked, someone always thinks they are talking about the state of Georgia.

I'll tell you, I-65 was bumper to bumper all the way up to the Tennessee state line. It was northbound all 4 lanes early yesterday morning. All the motel rooms where I live have nearly filled up.
