Made me do some pondering !
While this advice sound good - for some happiness would come at an awfully high price as not all those that cause drama are disposable.
True. But on the flip side, when a guy you were friends with for 20+ years suddenly tried to screw your wife...he should be lucky to not end up beaten to a pulp and a log chain wrapped around his neck and drug behind a truck...
I know one of my brothers over the years have cut off being freinds with some people because they could not or would not pull their heads out of their wazoo, and he just didn't want to be drug into BS that was non of his doing...guys I grew up around, learning stuff from {both god and bad}.

Back to a happy thought:
How the hell do I get to Kansas City.
I don't think even the idea of driving ole Blue in 4wd on I-29 south of Omaha right now is a good idea...

No shit George, ain't kidding about lack of planning. As far as that picture...I thought it was I-29?
The Iowa DOT had a site with a bunch of image galleries. Nuts just seeing stuff.
What amazes me is this man made disaster has affected so many people.
Do a google search for Iowa floor damage...
I know the hurricane/tropical storm thing was bad for the east coast, but damn, this flooding has screwed this area for what, three solid months now?
What's awesome is how people are getting screwed on their flood insurance...this was a man-made disaster yet the Army corps of Engineers is not responsible?
If I am not mistaken, this is a shot looking to Omaha from the North.
Here is an interesting satellite image south of Omaha, by Nebraska City:
