At least 38,000 Georgia residents without power after torrential storms

In a year when storms have reminded Americans in all parts of their existence, Georgia residents become the latest Americans hit by torrential rainfall, and damaging winds. As of four hours prior to this notification, at least 38,000 Southerners are doing without power. Linemen, and those repair crews, deserve a History Channel® show of their own, don't they?

Residents all over the state of Georgia are just the latest to suffer a series of powerful storms.

Also in the mix for folks in the area, was a barrage of hailstones, which damaged property, of course. That's what hail is known to do. We can be confident our friends in Georgia will likely recover from these weather events somewhat easier than those in the Midwest, dealing with heavy flooding, and rebuilding from the sog. But, still, let's all keep our ear close to the ground, so we hear if Georgia begins calling for help, too.

Online Dating: Can mature, stable, sincere, single adults meet online?

Sure. You've seen them. You've seen the myriad of pop-ups for singles sites from all over the web. There are dating, ethnic, religion-based, lifestyle-based, and even income-based dating sites. And the ever-present “swinger” sites are still up!

Most of the time, a single consumer, looking to at least make a friend or two in the area, should be able to hope for some sort of sincere meeting. It seems, at least one person, out of the advertised “thousands in your area,” would be able to actually sit and have a drink with you...maybe lose at a game of bowling...or something. But no, after spending the membership fee on most sites, the most anyone ends up meeting is maybe a pen-pal.

Then a sponsor brought up maturedatingonly.com. Unlike most sites which are really centered around something or other which seems “naughty,” maturedatingonly.com serves only a crowd of real people seeking real relationships. The site membership consists of those only looking for a little fun to pass the time, all the way up to hoping to still find that one, full-blown, cherished relationship. They don't offer “the club life,” only “real life" singles.
