   All clear here.
   And can I just say that there ARE articulate residents of Atkins (home of the Atkins Pickle AND gateway to Arkansas’ wine country, Bing) with more than two or three teeth in their head.
   Not that you’d know it from the yahoos they’re interviewing on TV, FOX. Geez louise. Where do they find these people?

   Oh that’s good news, Lisa! Dang, that number just keeps going up. Awful beyond description.
   Did anyone mention a ‘freight train’ yet?

   YES! One toothless guy said, “We heard this noise like a big ‘ol train was a-comin’ through our yard, and I tole Mama to get in the hall.”
