Not here to sell anything; but friend asked what's best thing to do in a flash flood in middle of the night if you're at home.
My opinion: Get one of these M18 sawzalls and keep it near your attic access. If you retreat to attic, you may need out. Nothing will cut thru roof faster than this thing!

They’re not just defunding the Park Service—they’re dismantling it. The White House budget proposes a $1.2 billion cut, including $900 million from operations. Then they turn around and claim we can’t afford to protect “less popular” parks. It’s not a budget crisis. It’s sabotage.

The Birth of the Trump Doctrine Lies in the 1987 Recruitment of Donald Trump By the KGB During His Trip to Moscow That Year
How Trump responded to his recruitment remains unclear. What is clear, however, is that it shaped his entrance into politics and his foreign policy in a way the world now ignores at its peril.
