three touchdowns and a nearby active tornado, but no blip in power......sometimes cookie-cutter neighborhoods with their underground wiring have their positive points......

monster 06-23-2010 09:43 PM

oh! it's gone quiet. really quiet. like silent. weird. very weird

oh thunder, tg. that was scary, I preferred the noise -at least I knew what was happening.

We may be done.....

monster 06-23-2010 09:45 PM

YAY, we're done! A watch for a few hours, but we're done. Thanks all for going through this with us -a little concerning

Phew!

lumberjim 06-23-2010 09:51 PM

three touchdowns! 21-0!

monster 06-23-2010 10:01 PM

one is unconfirmed, may be only two...
back up now -maybe we should just live in the basement -took far longer to get everyone and everything back up than it did down -and the cats are still there, despite their initial objections...

monster 06-23-2010 10:08 PM

storms are still pretty wicked, I'mm'a heading out to watch....

Make sure you take your bumbershoot.

WHOA! Put the car in PARK! You live near a Cabela's?
How awesome is that? I live near Orvis, but they are posers when it comes to offing real animals. Wow.

Have you met Marlin Perkins?

monster 06-24-2010 10:29 AM

I have no idea who Marlin Perkins is. yes, we live near a Cabella's -we're exit 37, they are exit 17. We often pass but rarely stop by. Too expensive.

squirell nutkin 06-24-2010 10:55 AM

SOrry the Marlin Perkins ref was too outdated. He was our David Attenborough until he died in the mid 80s.
He was a naturalist and host of "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom".

If you think Cabela's is expensive you should see Orvis. They've got several $25K and up engraved shotguns...
$250 hip flasks, etc. It's for people who are unable to spend enough money at regular stores.

and I was being ironic and a bit facetious.

monster 06-24-2010 11:03 AM

:lol: yes, you can spend a lot on a little quite easily. Do all Cabela's have the indoor mountain and river?

lumberjim 06-24-2010 11:03 AM

We live 3o minutes from a Cabella's.

Ridiculous.

You want ALL the rednecks in one place on Sunday afternoon? That's where they are.
