Mike McNeill’s Diary for Thursday, November 12, 2026: Disaster – man-made or natural – preparedness

There’s been a burst of governmental advisories – here and abroad – encouraging citizens to stock up with at least three days’ worth of food, fuel, water and cash supplies. The reasons governments provide range from concerns about the Ukraine-Russia war, the Trump-Iran war, large scale attacks against computer systems, and severe storms and floods with resulting power outages. Being prepared for such emergencies is a good idea at any time, but the recent messages have had a tone of urgency about them – like there’s something governments know that they’re not prepared to share with the population yet. That thought touches on being a conspiracy theory, which is something we avoid employing. Attempting to scare the public out of their wits over vague threats is irresponsible. That said, be prepared. CLICK HERE for a checklist that can help you.

A father who fought for Hope, a banker’s path home

HOPE – “I went with my daddy to talk to the board members of the vo-tech program to put it here in Hope. So, I’m kind of proud of that.” Darwin Hendrix was a young man when he joined his father, then-state Sen. Olen Hendrix, in the push to bring a vocational-technical school to Hope in the 1960s. Today that school is the University of Arkansas Hope-Texarkana. It is one of several things the Hendrix family has helped bring to Hope and southwest Arkansas over more than half a century.
