Tornado Sirens....
« on: March 02, 2008, 08:55:23 PM »
Just started going off.  There's supposed to be a tornado about 1 mile from our place headed right for us.  We'll see.
Breakfast- I'm havin' a time
Wheelies- I'm havin' a time
Headlocks- I'm havin' a time
Drunk Tank- not so much a time
George St.- I'm havin' a time
Brenda- I'm havin' a time
Bingo- I'm havin' a time
House Arrest- I'm still havin' a time

they're basically saying anyone in my neighborhood should take cover.  I'm glad we have a basement, but I'm not ready to get down there yet.

OKC news is the worst.  All 3 channels are full time weather (which is ok), but they are reporting stuff that's not true (full power outages in our immediate area, saying we have tornadoes on the ground and then later saying that they were mistaken, etc...)

Yeesh.  Good luck, Andy - keep us updated.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

we found 4 new leaks in our house.  All through the upstairs windows, all showing themselves through water dripping from our can lights.

Sounds like we're getting it now. The wind's blowin' somethin' fierce!
It ain't ego, it's my love for you.

wow, hope everything turns out all right for the OKFOTs.  i play the hardy new englander part pretty well when it comes to nor'easters and hurricanes, but whenever i'm in the midwest, the very mention of tornadoes (and earthquakes in california for that matter) scares the S-Hit out of me.

tornadoes scare the s-hit outta me too.  Deadly storms that I can't outrun... that's what my nightmares are made of.  If I had any familiarity with earthquakes, they'd scare the s-hot outta me also.

I guess this year has proven there's nothing O.K. about OK weather. Hang in there, Andy.
