    Having said that, most U.K. Tornados tend to be in the Midlands.

    A gigantic apocalyptic tornado could howl straight through the centre of Dudley, devastating everything in its path ...... and there would still only be £15 worth of damage

    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    I have to explain a few things about walrus for those of you who are not from the northeast of the United States of America. walrus tends to say things that he doesn't really mean to say for example he says it F5 he's probably just talkin about the way he rates his coworkers. For example one of those coworkers didn't know how to use a forklift on a Bobcat so he had to show him how to do it and he only rated him about an F3

    If u are talking about tornado ratings I think they said this was an F1 or 2 but I’m not sure how the scale works. If F1 is the lowest than damn F5 must be a mess. They also reported it was followed by a micro or macro burst which I guess can be worse than a tornado as they cover a larger area. I’m behind on the news what with the no power. Last year Bridgeport got hit with one that way up on the scale and took out all of state street. Training people on the bobcat is scary cause it has two levers for steering and if you carry o load and turn wrong the one we have would tip over l, block the exit and I’d probably need to smash a window to get them out. Bobcats are a lot of fun.?

    Damn power came on this morn I’m very impressed with the power crews. We didn’t just lose power lines we lost poles all over as well. Four days without power was bad but they estimated a week so I’m pleased. It has been nice, despite my broken finger I’ve been making the rounds with my chainsaw helping friends and neighbors and a buddy helped me cut my car out and clear my driveway. Honestly the heart of that storm lasted about five minutes it’s impressive the amount of damage done.

    That was very scary and it caused about £17.50 worth of damage I have you know.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
