I heard from a friend that a couple tornadoes touched down about half an hour north of me in Fox Lake, Illinois.

Much better chance of dodging a tornado than an earthquake. This time of the year severe T-Storms and tornadoes are a common thing here, Oklahoma, and we're used to it. First reaction is usually to run outside and look for it. Unless of course it's a real nasty one then you head for for storm cellar.

Yup. On it's way east over to Iowa City where the g/f is working.

There's been *several* funnel clouds spotted around the area in the last hour. Watching the news right now and luckily none of them have touched down yet.

I gaurantee she refers to you as the fiance whereas you refer to her as the girlfriend. That's ok, I understand. You'll be assimilated into the collective soon enough.

<< Ah, the real reason for the $500/yr homeowners insurance. ;) >>



Nah, that's *really* because of the meth lab I run out of my basement.
