There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Nice pics.
Reminds me of when I was very young (and the chores hadn't been delegated to me yet), it got very dark and there was a close lightning strike.
Dad was milking the cows at the time, and when he came back to the house he said it knocked him off the milk stool.
Next day could see the lone big tree down the lane from the barn was split in two, half standing and the other half lying on the ground.
Makes you appreciate why they say not to seek shelter under a tree when there is a chance of lightning.
