Report on from “storm chaser Lance”; wonder what his life insurance premiums are? LOL. That’s pretty dicey work.

I heard the dog was pro Reagan and anti-turbulent weather.

I have bean-laden chili and a lantern so I can both light the house and heat it.

Mmmmmmmmm; beans & chili! LOVE IT! And an extra *benefit*, to boot.

It’s all Romney and his Leftist Advisers fault.

“I heard the dog was pro Reagan and anti-turbulent weather.”

I heard that, too...which of course makes the deed doubly heinous.

I love thunderstorms. It’s like the hand of God or the angels bowling.

Funny, I thought it was Bush’s fault...in all seriousness, it was the Dims (under Bill Clinton) who tried to close the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma, which is responsible for forecasting severe weather outbreaks like the one in progress. It was a Republican by the name of J.C. Watts who saved the center—and countless lives—by keeping the SPC in operation. Remember that the next time you hear a Democrat talk about Republicans trying to “cut” NOAA.

“Better unplug electric things if it’s coming your way. That lightening can do real damage to electronics!”

I’m taking your advice. I have my wife up on the roof trying to dismantle the antenna but wind, rain, and hail are making it difficult. Luckily with all the lightning, she doesn’t need the flashlight she dropped.

We are ready. SW MO has had its share of the monster storms..I am praying it misses us. After what happened to Joplin we had an in ground shelter built. My next door neighbor moved 3 miles from me and was killed in the last tornado in Cassville, MO. It was a fluke that the storm went through that particular area...Branson was hit too but thank God noone died

ROTFLMAO!!! I was in hysterics for a few minutes...once I caught my breath; I read it to my wife. She wasn’t quite as amused.

That's dangerous. She could slip and grab onto the antenna and bend it so badly that you lose any reception.
