This is what it looked like outside a few minutes ago:



That's some tornado-lookin' shit right there!

I turn 35 two weeks from yesterday. This is bugging me more than it should. Oh well, at least I'm still spry.

I don't guess it's really gonna do much, but it was skeery-lookin' for a minute! I went home for lunch, and when I came out, all my plants and stuff were blown all over the patio.

Ah, that's good. I remember when one touched down a few miles from where I went to college. There wasn't any damage where I was living at the time.

I thought you said, "Stay away from those widows."

Heh.

A huge tornado touched down merely a mile from my house when I was working at WDW and living in St. Cloud.
Supposedly it had a radius of a mile wide and tore up about 5 miles of land on the other side of Hwy 192 from where I lived.
This thing was so bad that Clinton came out and did a presidential inspection.
Oddly enough, there was a picture of him standing on some debris in the next days paper... come to find out, there was a person trapped right underneath what he was standing on and died a few hours after Clinton stopped standing on him.
The body wasn't found until the next day when they started clearing the area.

I, however, slept through the entire thing.
I woke up to my alarm clock blinking due to the power outage but had no idea why.
I raced to get dressed and out the door for work but even knowing what time it was.
On my way to work I was stuck in horrible traffic and had to stop at a gas station to call and tell them I'd be late.
That's when my scheduler told me not to worry about it and what had happened in the wee hours of the night.
Crazy, huh?

I thought you said "at least I'm still a spy".

Turns out that there weren't any tornados in the area, but it sure did look like there were gonna be!

And yeah, thunderstorms rule.

I am here in Vance. About 18 miles east of Tuscaloosa. My cell 713-818-1442. I actually won't be here for the weekends and I don't have a car, so I don't know how practical it is to make you run around getting me on a weekday but I am game for whatever.

I Feel You, Mang.

I turn 35 on October 7th. I am not happy about this either.

I got hitched when I was 35. Big year! You will do okay, Charlie Brown.
