Alabama is no stranger to paranormal or out of the ordinary activity. Ghost Stories, sightings haunted places, urban legends, they all exist here in Alabama.
It is that time of year. All of the year-end lists are coming out this week. Now, the biggest website known for catering to "adult" desires has released their list. The interesting thing is how ALABAMA has managed to vault itself all the way to #1, in one very important area of the metrics.
I wish violent crimes were not an everyday occurrence in Alabama. Wish in one hand, and, well, you-know-what in the other hand....and see which one fills up first. As we get ready for a new year, the violent crime statistics are released for review. This research is from the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting stats on violent crime and property crime.
Alabama is in the Top 20 of this frightening list. The metrics used to rate these states is based on some unique factors, in my opinion. The report is partly based on the amount of literal ghost sightings/experiences. That's not all that matters here. UFO encounters are ALSO a part of this overall look at the "haunted" states.
Why do so many people get these direct messages or conversations with the Creator, God, and others do not. In this case, a prominent business owner with a large footprint in Alabama, has had a direct message from God delivered to him.
A big part of that in Tuscaloosa is, of course, having a rather large university in town. "Pissed off" might be a bit stronger reaction for some of these things. It just might make us chuckle or laugh out loud. That said, a few definitely can make an Alabama man or woman get pretty ticked off.
So, who are the three richest people in the state of Alabama? Do you know any of them? Have you met any of them? Where do they live in Alabama? This vast fortune that these people have was built in what industry? All good questions and now it's time for the answers.
