But still, most people stay at one place for years.

You guys are under tornado watches? So are we. A raging snowstorm out in the Hills and we are having severe thunderstorm warnings and tornado watches. We just had a downpour of rain.

Wow!
You have some interesting weather there Jammie.

So when are you coming to OK?
It's almost as interesting minus the snow.

Ummmm....
I saw this in OKC a week ago....
Isn't that close enough?



Hey! Wait a minute...
You're not an Okie...
Since when do YOU get to make the rules?

It's a shame I don't have any scotch here...
Then I could follow GP's Tornado rules....
It IS after 5pm....

I heard that, on the scotch rule . Oh, and lets not forget that I was stationed at Ft Sill for three years. Man-o-man let me tell you, I've seen my share of funnel clouds hit the ground . The second year I was there a tornato hit Lawton, right smack-dab on the strip, "where all the strip joints were". Tore the whole street apart. And did you know that thoughs people must have put out a wounded animal call. They must have had every relative in the state come in to help them rebuild. SSSHHEEESSSHHH! they where fast.

I thought it was just the people who were windy....
Is it possible GP misled me when I was an Okie wannabe?
Say it ain't so!
