1. basement?

Good luck you all. I am glad to have moved to a place with very very very rare tornados. Good luck.

2. Head for your friedy hole fast...

Damn, I can't imagine what that would be like, living in an area where you have cover and duck and still don't know if you will live or die.

Thanks for the well wishes, everybody!

You never know with tornadoes.

I hope we don't have any touch downs tonight. In the past they have decimated entire small towns.

5. It must be hard living under those conditions...

But I bet that you guys have reasons to live down there. You wouldn't put up with all those tornados and Bushies if it wasn't pretty!

Glad to know that you're safe.

6. We're in Minnesota! Early summer is always tornado season.

Still blue but the Bushies have been gaining on us.

Edit: (Almost forgot my manners) Welcome to DU MinimandaRuth. :hi:

Maybe I should sign up my suporgirls!

10. It could be very educational.

Just keep them out of the lounge.

11. Hi, MiniMandaRuth

It's "back there," not "down there," (we're on the same latitude as Salem, OR) and while we have tornadoes, we almost never have earthquakes and no volcanos at all. (I lived in Portland for 19 years an dcould see Mt. St. Helen's out of my kitchen window.)
