If there is a God he apparently hates Alaska right now!

Flooding in Seward, Alaska.

Here is more from ADN:

Chuck Van Ornum escaped from his home near Willow Creek with nothing but his 14-year-old dog, named Dammit. 

His area of Friday Road, just off Hatcher Pass Road in the Willow area, was rushing with what looked like whitewater when he left in the dark Wednesday night. The water was so deep that his station wagon briefly floated as he tried to drive down the road. 


"It's the scariest thing I've ever done," he said. "And I've been shot, I've done everything." 

Van Ornum ended up spending the night at a Red Cross shelter set up at the Willow Community Center. About 25 people were expected to take shelter there Thursday night, a staff member said, up from five the night before. 

I'm sorry but when anything knocks down being shot to the second scariest thing that has ever happened to you, you know that new thing must be scary as shit!

Dennis said that his place was all flooded as well and some of the roads were washed out, and even the Old Glenn highway was flooded.

My backyard looks like a Mississippi bayou right now and there is a mushroom growing in the yard so big that I will be able to take cover beneath it the next time the skies open up again.

Well now I guess we know why Sarah Palin is doing her Fox interviews from sunny La Vegas don't we? That's the same thing she did when she was governor, run at the first sign of trouble.

Coward!
