    Arkansas declares state of emergency!

    Ya'll better stay out of here this Monday, looks like we have an emergency situation. Who knew an eclipse could be so dangerous?

    The media has blown this all out of proportion. It's just a damn eclipse. It's not the end of the world.

    I get your perspective but gaining a more informed understand of the universe never hurt any flat earth person that we know of.

    I live in the path of the last one that happened a few years ago. I would say the SOE is due to the traffic jam that is about to occur. Nobody was going anywhere when it happened here. Idiots just parked in the middle of the road and got out of their cars. Do not underestimate the amount of stupid that is going to happen.

    If you think I'm a flat Earther because I dislike the unnecessary drama then you really are missing the point.

    The fear mongering and hyperbole has been insane. Again it's just an eclipse. They couldn't just report it without the sensationlism.

    Nah, Mark I get your point and I think I respected that. I know you aren't a flat earther but they do roam the planet.

    They will never find a virgin in Arkansas to throw into the Volcano and make the sun come back.

    It probably frees up some tax money the crooks can spend?
    If professionals who's careers depend on catching fish use FFS then that's what I'm using. Might be too simple of a philosophy but makes sense to me.

    Let us Arkies have our day in the sun, or not. We have nothing else to do over here that’s short of moonshining and family relations.
