All tornadoes are from Hell. Some earthquakes are simply amusing but not tornadoes.
lol @ in charge.
This is not a disaster. This isn't worth the conversation.
Feels like hurricane Sandy.
BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION & LACKING PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

Do you live here in the midwest? Did you live through one of our storms? Most hurricanes come with weather warnings well in advance. A tornado--if you're lucky--comes with a siren warning you to duck and cover immediately. When you come out--if you were fast enough to dive for cover--everything you own and have spent a lifetime building is gone. It takes about a minute. There's no lack of personal responsibility unless you wish to die.

Yes, he and his family are well and safe. No damage for him.
Thank goodness! I'm glad to hear it. *hug*Yes, he and his family are well and safe. No damage for him.
I remember "duck and cover" drills....But "Duck & Cover?"
I didn't think you were that old that you'd remember that. [sorry]
Glad the relatives are safe & well.
Re: PayDay comments.
He/She/It is on my ignore list. Some of the most preposterous comments ever seen emerge from that quarter. I'd be banned if I got into an argument with it.

Thanks.
Our duck and cover drills in the Midwest are still being done in schools today--but it has nothing to do with bombs. It's about protecting your ass in the case of tornadoes. The drills are done regularly, alongside fire drills.
We have drills like that. We go in the hallway. My class has the privilege of being the closest one to the glass doors.
Ours were "get under the desk and hold onto the legs". Then, when the shaking stops, get the Hell out of the building. Being under the desk protected the kids from flying window glass, falling florescent light bulbs, etc. Of course, I taught in a steel box of a bungalow where the ceiling was made of pressed paper. Earthquakes didn't worry me but I made sure the kids knew how to get out the door and both windows in event of fire!
Oh? What grade are you in?
I'm the oldest kid in high school.
I think my eyesight is failing. (Well, yes, I know it is.) But I read the banner as "Tomatoes from hell'. I wasn't sure whether you meant the supermarket ones that look great but taste of nothing, or the narly-looking ones that taste fantastic.
I think I remember hearing a teacher once relate duck-and-cover to bombs, but forever after when our school did them (for a couple more years), it was said to be because of earthquakes. I never understood how one of those flimsy-ass desks was supposed to protect us from a bomb.Thanks.

Oh. Isn't your class... lucky.... patient, seriously, I hope your class never needs one of those drills.We have drills like that. We go in the hallway. My class has the privilege of being the closest one to the glass doors.
Okay, now getting under the desk makes a bit of sense, at least as far as earthquakes are concerned.Ours were "get under the desk and hold onto the legs". Then, when the shaking stops, get the Hell out of the building.

Whoop! We can raid the liquor cabinet(s) here!Pajama party!
I feel sorry for you, dear. You seem so very unhappy.Storm is a storm.
Love the level of tolerance.
'No my storms are more dangerous!'
'No mine!'
'No we live in tornado alley and it's always unexpected!'
'nou!'
