    Shit dude, I randomly wake up on Saturday mornings and hop in the boat, take the American flag down and put up a pirate flag, then plot a course to the Bahamas and once there I'll drive around until I find a boat with a fish on the line and board their boat and take the rod and reel with the fish just so I can feel like a pirate of the Caribbean.

    Perfectly normal behavior IMO. :notsure:

    A tractor-trailer was captured on video completely toppling over by strong gusts of winds while driving down a highway in north Texas.

    Video from the incredible moment was captured by Amarillo's KVII-TV.


    The truck was one of several rigs that were toppled over by extreme wind exceeding 70 mph in north Texas and New Mexico on Wednesday, KFDA reported. In some areas, trees were uprooted by the wind and tossed onto vehicles and homes, the report said.

    The exact location of the truck in the video and the condition of its driver was not immediately clear.

    Emergency officials in Johnson County say a mobile home rolled onto a parked vehicle about 20 miles south of Fort Worth. One person in the residence, near Cleburne, was injured.

    Amarillo residents cited in the report called the weather the most extreme the area has ever experienced.

    Feds charge 5 from New Mexico compound, where 11 children were found, with terror, kidnapping offenses

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/feds-cha...en-were-found-with-terror-kidnapping-offenses

    The residents of a makeshift New Mexico compound -- where 11 emaciated children were found during an August raid -- were charged by federal authorities Wednesday with terror, kidnapping and firearms offenses.

    “The indictment alleges that the defendants conspired to provide material support in preparation for violent attacks against federal law enforcement officers and members of the military,” Assistant Attorney General John C. Demers for the Department of Justice's National Security Division said.

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/fbi-arre...ects-days-after-multiple-charges-were-dropped

    Jany Leveille, 36, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, 40, Hurjah Wahhaj, 38, Subhanah Wahhaj, 36 and Lucas Morton, 41, were charged “with federal offenses related to terrorism, kidnapping and firearms violations,” the Department of Justice said in a press release. In the original indictment, Leveille was also charged with "possessing firearms and ammunition as an alien illegally and unlawfully in the United States."

    The suspects were previously charged on Sept. 11 “with a conspiracy relating to the possession of firearms and ammunition by an alien illegally and unlawfully in the United States,” the DOJ said.

    “The superseding indictment alleges a conspiracy to stage deadly attacks on American soil,” U.S. Attorney John C. Anderson said in a statement. “These allegations remind us of the dangers of terrorism that continue to confront our nation, and the allegation concerning the death of a young child only underscores the importance of prompt and effective intervention by law enforcement. I commend our law enforcement partners for their ongoing diligence and outstanding work in identifying and disabling imminent threats of targeted violence.”

    The five suspects were arrested by authorities after an Aug. 3 raid following a monthslong inquiry into the disappearance of Abdul-ghani Wahhaj, 3. The boy, who had severe medical issues, disappeared from Georgia in December. The occupants of the compound were "most likely heavily armed and considered extremist of the Muslim belief," an official said at the time.

    Taos County Sheriff's deputies discovered 11 children at the compound, who were taken into the custody of state child welfare workers. On Aug. 6, a child’s remains were found on the property.

    The superseding indictment charged Leveille, Hurjah Wahhaj, Subhanah Wahhaj and Morton with "kidnapping and conspiracy to commit kidnapping." They allegedly kidnapped a child under the age of 18 in Georgia and took him to New Mexico "where they concealed and held the child, resulting in the child's death," the press release stated.
