Today’s Thoughts
The
2’-4” expected snow was only a dusting. Maybe more coming later today.
Henry
Kissinger passes at 100. He was Sec of State for Richard Nixon, and then stayed
active in global policies until his death. He led a very complicated diplomacy
life. He will be remembered more for his good deeds than his controversial
deeds.
The
4 public schools and Tuba Boarding School posted last night that all schools
would be closed Nov. 30 due to social media threats. No further information.
Weird for sure. While I was having lunch with Andy and Faith, a mutual friend
called Andy. He worked at GreyHills Academy HS (BIE-gramt) in Tuba. They did
not close. His information said a female posted on social media that she was
going to shoot up the Boarding school and then move to the Public School. Navajo
Police have identified her but have not been able to contact her, yet. This story
is full of intrigue now.
