I used to pay for Hulu live tv but decided I wasn't getting enough out of it and bought a Roku instead. Now that I have it with free apps like PBS, crackle, freevee, tubi, Plex, Pluto, xumo, and a few others plus a few paid subscriptions like peacock, paramount, and basic Hulu, I have more content than I know what to do with for a fraction of what I was paying for live tv ($85/month in addition to my internet bill). It wouldn't be possible without very fast and reliable Internet however.

Like that EF3 tornado that came out of nowhere today in eastern NC. That's basically unheard of, especially in July. We didn't even have a severe weather threat. And it destroyed a significant portion of a Pfizer production facility that supplies 30% of injectables for the US. So that will surely have lasting impact beyond ENC. What are the chances? Not all that slim anymore unfortunately

I'm glad your dog is ok and the neighbor seemed to learn their lesson. Too bad it had to happen like that. When OP said "in other countries" dangerous animals attack cats I immediately thought of dogs as a threat to cats anywhere. We are in the US in an urban area and there are also owls, hawks, tics, poisonous snake, all which pose a potential threat to outdoor cats.
