We had tornado warning sirens in Savannah GA today. There are no basements in coastal Georgia, so I find the sirens more creepy than useful.
What are we supposed to do when one of these sirens blares? Other than pee our pants, I mean; that goes without saying.
Then there are the basketball warnings. Those are terrifying. They seem to happen every day and evening.

We're under a tornado watch until around 9 pm. Don'tcha just love spring in the south?
We're under a basketball watch until 2011.

Since the strongest room in a house or apartment is usually the bathroom, there's no reason to be peeing your pants. In any case, an inside room without windows is the next choice after a basement for a "safe room."
Basketball season lasts longer than any other season, with the NBA season beginning in Aug or Sep and the NBA playoffs following the NCAA playoffs and lasting into late April or early May.
However, the only real danger from Basketball season (on any level) is death by boredom or clogged arteries -- I've never heard of a badsketball game dropping anything on a wicked witch, let alone a house.

I have been hit in the head with a basketball. It hurts, but does considerably less damage than a house.

I thought this was gonna be about how white guys can't jump!
Tornado's, a wonderful invention of natures for cleaning up landscape.
Basketball games should only be two minutes long as the game is always decided in the last two minutes. The playoffs should be done away with as all but two team get into the playoffs. The rest is just fluff to justify the high prices of the tickets and TV royalties.

Good info, Herold. Is there any evidence that the extended Basketball season causes an increase in the number and intensity of wicked witches? My mom, for example, a sweet little white-haired 82-year-old, has begun to openly resent her 90-year-old boyfriend's obsession with the game.

I sense a gathering storm. No rotation yet, but the atmosphere is definitely unstable.

Since when is there basketball in Savannah? I mean isn't that a little like New Jersey's cracklin' cornbread.
