The Driest Area in the World
« on: March 26, 2015, 01:33:11 PM »


Flash floods in one of the driest regions in the world - Chile's Atacama desert - have left two people dead and 24 missing, officials say.

Drought in one area, flooding in another. One month without tornadoes – followed by massive and severe tornadoes.

Go figure.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
