WOW!
Gave me goose pimples. :D
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error.

If you look up "bad day" in Mr. Webster's tome, it will show this picture! :shock:

In real life, we have to wait for lightning to flash "behind" a funnel cloud or tornado so it will be visable when spotting at night. Lightning stricking to the "side" does not always illuminate one. We also keep our car windows down some and listen for the tell tale sound of the roar.

The problem arises when lightning strikes close to you and all you can see is spots for a while. Never had my car hit by lightning but it did hit within 50 yds once. :shock:

Check with your local National Weather Service for some really good funnel cloud and tornado videos and stills.
Republic. I like the sound of the word. It means people can live free, go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober, however they choose. Some words give you a feeling. Republic is one of those words that makes me tight in the throat . . . . Some words can give you a feeling that makes your heart warm. Republic is one of those words.

If I ever saw that coming I'd say "Hey, where'd my bladder go? OO-OO, there it is :shock: "
