I don't know about anyone else here but living in Oklahoma I live in a lil place called "tornado alley" Supposedly like almost all the tornados in the US are in this lil block.
One of my friends IMed me asking if i knew about the tornado, our convo went something like this.
friend: theres a big tornado coming toward where you live
me: lol, when will it be here?
friend: uhh storm should arrive in about half an hour
me: cool, i can watch TV for another 30 minutes then. if anythign else happens lemme know
friend: haha alright, its funny my family doesnt care anymore we're not taking cover
me: lol, same here
friend: its funny when you've lived in oklahoma for more than a few years instead of taking cover when tornados come you go and try to look at them

I went through a tornado storm three years ago. My Fd was totaled by hail. I happened to be driving it at the time. It was about five miles away from my house. I would not recommend chasing tornados. Pretty scary ****.

Yo **** that, watching the weather channel is enough for me. Watching those wack jobs chasing f5's and crap. Hurricanes are about as crazy as I'd wanna get, and we only get them once in a while up here.
Down south though a hurricane can level a whole town, while a tornado only will get a few houses. I guess living in the north has softened me to mother nature. Im waiting to see a tidal wave though, that'd be some ****.
