Maryland Smited Again.

[ColdWizard]

First earthquakes and now thunderstorms. I saw a tornado warning yesterday for the afflicted area but I don't see the T word in the news today.

As of 9:00 a.m., roughly 175,000 customers were without power in Montgomery County, about 53,000 were without power in Prince George's County, about 22,000 were without power in the District and about 9,600 were without power in Northern Virginia.

Looking for gas up there was fun

Isn't "smitten" the correct word?

[ColdWizard]

Leave my MrFun-Bait alone

That's the problem with bait.

So what immoral act has MD committed to anger god so?

[ColdWizard]

Gave Felch too many speeding tickets? Forced MrFun back to Iowa? Or maybe God just doesn't like crappy places

My province doesn't see a lot of tornadoes but the ones we do get are usually close to Windsor.

Perhaps you are right.

The storm was pretty awesome. I heard the thunder and realized, "oh crap, I need to get to the grocery store" so I headed out. It was almost black outside and the wind was knocking everything around, it looked like the end of the world. By the time I made it the four blocks to the Safeway it was coming down in buckets. Just torrential downpour. I parked in front of the grocery store and ran about 20 feet into the store. I was only out for a few seconds and I was drenched.

The storm was over by the time I got out of the store though, so nothing too serious. But fun to be in the middle of it.

I would have sent my kids.

Oooh, rain.

[ColdWizard]

You dare scoff at multi-day power outages?

[Boris Godunov]

What?

Having met the guy, I gotta tell you, MrFun does not live up to his Apolyton Handle.
