  • Raise your hand if you've spent time under a tornado...

    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

      A small one. Touched down briefly in my friends' yard, (I was visiting at the time) knocking over a couple of mature trees, then leapfrogged over her house and a few other buildings before touching down again and taking out a few more trees and ripping the siding and shingles off a house. No-one injured, very little damage.

      ...So what happened MM?
      There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

        I've been through a hurricane but never a tornado that was that close. The closest was just at the horizon.

          Literally under a tornado, no. Within a 1/4 mile of one touching down, yes.

            Well, that is something you don't see every day. I am glad you are not dead.

              Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                Sloww, have you been under lots of tornadoes, or are you also happy that I am not dead?



                I was under the Linwood tornado of May 28, 2019, an EF4 that hopped over my house at the last minute. I lost a forty-five foot tall tree that towered over my little house; fortunately it fell away from my house. No other damage, AFAIK. Cat herding with a tornado bearing down on you is "fun"!

                No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                    Both.
