I remember someone on Wisteria Lane survived the tornado in the tub, now that I think back to real life examples…

Tornado – OK. Lightening – not so good.
Unless, of course, the tub isn’t connected to the water.

I hope you noticed that I don’t pad my stats by correcting my typing mistakes, VJ.
You could go a long ways by following my example.

What, what are you wondering about? (And give me a little time to reply. I don’t know whether it’s weather-related or not, but I’m having a hard time refreshing this page.)

Tornado – OK.
Brian was kidding around about going into his bathtub during the storm, McFann. I told him it’s OK for a tornado, but not during a thunderstorm.
Tom-
VJ’s got one thing you don’t
And that’s a BIG thing, LAdy. (Although, not as big as it once was, so I hear.)

I know you like to shut your computer down during a thunderstorm. You have about 30 minutes before the next series of them moves in.
I don’t know where in Gwinnett county you are, but I’m tracking the storm going towards, Lawrenceville (because it’s in the center of the county).
Tom O'Hawke
March 2nd, 2012

Of course, LAdy. A little play on words, but definitely a compliment. (I don’t want you getting stabby again.)

Wee hours of the a.m. here, but that warm air stayed south of us. Cooler, more stable, air-mass in place here, so lots of rain, but little turbulance in RICHMOND, thank goodness.

Storms with Tornaders are starting to die down because there is less instability in the Atmosphere…Storms will still be out but its not gonna be off the chain like it was 3-4 hours ago…

Sorry, young lady, but you’d find out pretty soon anyway. At least you can prepare for it, now.

VJ: I have my DVR set and they are back to Leno, so unless the weather gets a lot worse, maybe Fallon will be on.
I saw “Brilliant Disguise” last night. Have you seen or heard Kenny Chesney’s new single “I’m On Fire”? It’s terrible IMHO.

I thought the performance on Jimmy acceptable, but I don’t hate him as much as the real-country lovers like you do (growing up in NY my knowledge of country was limited to Johnny and Glen and a few others)…we always used to have fun joking about how short the song is…

I was on the river fishing when the lightning started down here. That was an exciting hour going back to the boat ramp. Bailing out the boat while the lightning flashed all around. I mean the flash bang type where you see and hear it at the same time.
