OH HAIL!
The wife and I were out about a half an hour from tonight when a giant hail storm broke out. It smashed the back window out, cracked the window, broke the sideview mirror, and generally dented the everliving snot out of the car. There was break in the weather and so we decided to head home. Scary crap. Tornado warnings everywhere, heavy rain, and more hail. I was afraid it was going to finish off the windshield or a tornado was going to drop out of the sky and complicate our lives. Eventually we made it to our exit and we pulled off the highway and all the local roads are flooded. Finally we navigated through through all the floods and made it home. Still under tornado watches until 1:00 AM. Gosh I hope the worst is over. I've been home for 40 minutes and am still stressed out. |

Finally emerged from the basement. Got hungry and decided it wasn't worth the effort to try and barbecue a rat using a propane torch and some pliers.
We were lucky. Neighbor trees lying all over the place. Big ones. Dogs running wild (probably because the lightning knocked out some radio fence enclosures). People weeping. Roof damage. Some dumbass' backyard trampoline is in a tree down the street. Not sure what to think about that. But no deaths in the neighborhood. What a storm. The bad news is that the rivers are rising once again and the last thing we need around here is another flood. If we get another one of those damn things, I'm going to consider collecting animals two by two - except for ants. They're on their own. On a side note, if there remained any doubt whatsoever that our government is run by a pack of unbridled morons, they interrupt really effective and useful live, weather reports that are complete with detailed Doppler radar and storm tracking down to the minute with these funky gray screens of text and some machine robot dude telling you that there's a storm in the area and you should take cover. I wonder how much that costs the taxpayers. I'm going to write my congressman as soon as my stationary dries out. Meanwhile, thanks for the awesome post things, my friends. A 100 poster! Assuming Mr. Skip Towne never returns and I live another 20 years and don't get banned again, I could wind up winning this deal. FAX |

Congrats on surviving Mr. FAX. Consider this training for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
Stay ready. |

Actually, the power was only out overnight. A neighbor's tree fell on the pole that holds the feed line to the house ... knocked out the cable, too. That neighbor dude is new and kind of a twerp, I'm afraid. He called the fire department and the police instead of the electric company. I thought they had come to arrest me for a thought crime ... of which, admittedly, I was guilty.
