 OMFG TORNADOZ!

Heh.
I'm at work at the airport here manning the cargo gate. The Sheriff's Dept just came by and said they were closing the ramp to all non-essential traffic. Looks like I won't be doing anything at all for the next 5 hours.
I hope I don't get sucked up into a funnel cloud though. This building is pretty flimsy.
Oh, and I have like, 18 windows open at my house. I'm going to come home to a disaster...

Yeah, this building has glass on every side so you can see in all directions.
If a tornado comes, I will almost certainly die.
Oh well, I'm turning on the horse race.

But! If I die I won't have to clean up the mess that is surely awaiting me at my house. Big puddles in the middle of my floor and a sopping wet couch and mattress?
Who wants to deal with that?
Tornado, TAKE ME NOW!

Somehow that makes them less frightening to me.
I always feel like a flying monkey could pick you up by your shoulders with it's monkey feet and carry you off to the Wicked Witches Lair.
With wheels? Not so much.

Heh, the wind speed thingy is going from 20 mph to 60 mph and then back again every couple of seconds and there are big chunks of hail coming down.
I am actually getting a bit nervous.

Yeah.. Return to Oz.. it pretty much sucked from what I remember.. except for the flying monkeys.
I guess I got it confused.. there were Wheelers... and Flying Monkeys... two different things but equally as freaky.
Both minions of the wicked witch..

I'm only really familiar with that stuff from reading Tad Williams' Otherland series, which took place in a gigantic internet VR-type simulation made by some group of billionares, which contained a lot of realities spoofing stuff from the wizard of oz books. Very trippy read, reccomended if you like either scifi or computers, and have the time to read like 2000 pages. It definitely took some versatile writing to be able to change scenes as often as he did.

"in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption"
"People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."

Yeah, they had 5 or 10 on the ground just in Milwaukee County here.
This is a hell of a storm.
And like I said, all my windows are open at home and I'm stuck here for another 4 hours.
FUCK
