Dear Student Pilot, it doesn't matter that you didn't intend to hurt anyone. When a flight attendant tells you to return to your seat, you do it without question. People need to learn to follow the rules. I'm so sick of them thinking they can do whatever they want.

For Cristina and Jaimie and MS. I am 75 was dx MS in my early fifties. I couldn’t walk w/o failing, had seizures. Was given a death sentence. At church, the pastor put a chair out and ask all who wants Jesus to heal them, come. I felt the Holy Spirit guiding me to go. I could only walk very slowly. I sat down and the Pastor asked me if I believed Jesus could heal me. I said I did. He pour a little oil on my head but it felt like a skillet of hot grease going through my body. I stood up and said,I am healed. I still have white matter on m lobes attached to my brain through scans. No matter what the doc states; I am healed. I will be 76 in two months and I still praise God!

David & Rob 13:21 - I'm on the Iron Range in Northeastern Minnesota & we have had very little snow & pretty warm temps this winter - it was 60°F a few days this week & we have zero snow on the ground. It's March & we should still have snow on the ground & cold temps. Duluth is 55 miles south of my hometown & they had record breaking snow amounts last year & this year looks to be a record breaker year for least amount of snow. We've also had many months of warmest & least snowiest on record this winter too. I only really had snow on the ground for January & I only had to shovel twice - the rest melted right away. I had more green grass on Christmas than I had all last summer. We have been in a drought in Northeastern Minnesota for 3 or 4 summers now, but we usually make it up in winter - there's already grass & brush fires daily. Last Summer, I only had to mow once - in June. The summer before, I mowed once a month for a few months. I'm not complaining about less manual labor in yard work, but I am concerned about the lack of precipitation & fire danger. Lake Superior affects our weather & storms seem to be missing the region frequently. My question is, are we alone in the warm temps & low precipitation or are other places in the US & Canada experiencing similar conditions this year? Seems like it's been horrible storms after horrible storms everywhere else on the news & we are sitting here waiting for the shoe to drop on us. I notice that when you mention Minnesota, you usually stick with mentioning the Twin Cities Metro Area, but the weather changes greatly at times between the Cities, Duluth, the Range & the Arrowhead Region.
