DID YOU HEAR THAT BOOM???? DID YOU?!!!!??
IT WAS THE ONE BEING LOWERED ON THE TS THREADS.

I heard it, even here amid the thunder and tornadoes descending down upon my home.

Heads up fellow Southerners...gonna be a rough night....

Edited on Sun Mar-27-05 04:30 PM by Clark2008
Southerner, I should care or be concerned, in particular.

Florida isn't a "Southern" state, per se (most of the inhabitants are from other countries or from the North, other than in the panhandle). And, also, not all of those wingnuts protesting in front of the hospice are not all Southerners, either.

Just wondering why should have a heads up? :shrug:

34. Um did you read the part about tornadoes?
Last night and today there are multiple outbreaks of extreme weather including tornadoes. I merely had two ideas going in my post:
1. The weather was freaking me out.
2. I was sick of the absurd level of posting about TS. People were posting the same drivel over and over. I don't understand the attention whore spamming where every DUer feels it is necessary for them to post their very own TS observation thread when they repeat what has been posted a zillion other times.

Sorry you misunderstood. Heads up was for bad weather, nothing to do with Florida.

16. Neighbor..
The point of my post was to encourage other DUers to cease posting threads about the "you know" case.

Get ready for some big storms, per clockwork, but bigger.

28. We've got an in-ground storm shelter...had it put in about a year after...
...we moved back to the Huntsville area in 1996. Only had to use it twice, but we were glad both times!

38. Where in North Alabama?
I'm in Huntsville and there's a big cell headed right for us. It's dark here, no thunder yet, but sun is peeking out in some places which further destabilizes the atmosphere. May have to unplug the cable modem and computer in a while.

27. Lucianne.com stopped people from posting about Schiavo
In this thread (sorry I will not direct link to that awful site, you will have to copy and paste)

lucianne.com/threads2.asp?artnum=205523

Posted By:LComStaff, 3/25/2005 11:30:17 AM

Comments on the Schiavo story have now become repetitive, argumentative and increasingly ugly. Posters are losing their privileges for attacking and spamming. We feel we are serving our readers by posting articles but not allowing threads for comment. By doing this we save our members from themselves and preserve their ability to post.If subject is introduced on threads that are not about the Sciavo story they will be deleted.

32. That can't really be her, can it?
Seriously?!

I mean - I COULD see how a night out with the fundie blue-dress witches would do that to her, but I'm having trouble believing she would allow herself to be photographed looking like the hag she is.
