Yay... tornados.

I came home early from work to "be the man" for my wife and kids in this impending weather we have. Tornado sirens went off twice so far... all I've done is unpacked my replacement 24" LCD from Dell checking to see how well it works.

 

[OCGuy]

Look ma, its a turrrrnaaaaadduuur!

 

[SunnyD]

Forgot to mention apparently one touched down within about 1/2 mile from my house.

 

[Dumac]

Hope everything turns out okay.

 

[racolvin]

Interesting ... I live in the same area, guess I'll see what my neighborhood looks like when I get home

 

[Red Squirrel]

Scary. So glad I don't live in a place that gets stuff like that. I enjoy storms, but I don't enjoy losing my house, belongings, and possible loved ones. Good luck, hopefully it misses your area.

Make sure to get some pics if a tornado gets close!

 

[Fingolfin269]

Yah it doesn't look that great out here right now.

Definitely, I'd love to see a close up of a fly being thrashed by the twister :Q

Seriously though, good luck.

Yeah, classes got canceled in Tuscaloosa.

My test got canceled, so now I have until Tuesday to study.

Crazy ass weather here in Tallahassee too. Looks like a damn hurricane.

 

[eplebnista]

all kinds of warnings/precautions were taken here and as usual nothing happened but regular ol' rain, a little thunder, and a smattering of lightning

 

[coldmeat]

I've had a tornado touch down within a mile of my house once, and I live in the Ottawa valley.

I love the saying from cars:

I'm as happy as a tornado in a trailer park

Be sure to grab that last minute tornado insurance.

It's like buying earthquake insurance or flood insurance in Florida... it's not gonna happen.

Or if you do get it they will say the damage wasn't done because of the tornado but because of a tree falling on your house and it only covers ficus.

 

[Unheard]

We dealt with the same crap here in Nashville.

 

[Born2bwire]

So ummm... if you buy the farm, who gets the new monitor?

 

[racolvin]

Whoever it lands on 3 counties away I guess

I'll never understand why people choose to live where tornadoes repeatedly touch down...

 

[racolvin]

Gotta live somewhere. If its not tornadoes its hurricanes, earthquakes, or volcanoes

So how do the dingoes taste after eating the sweet meat for their life?
