Hello, Tornado

Posted by DesertFox on Sept. 9, 2010, 1:16 a.m.

So, I was doing some work up in Dallas helping my father with some office stuff, moving and putting together furniture, etc. Then this happened.

There was a tornado in Dallas today. Guess where I was today? Dallas! Lets get a bit more specific, shall we? Where in Dallas did the tornado hit? Mockingbird Lane! Guess where I was? Mockingbird Lane! Guess what time it hit? 7 PM. Guess where I was at 7 PM? Getting something to eat at a fast-food restaurant on Mockingbird Lane!

To make a long story short, I got to see a tornado rip through Dallas, while waiting at the drive-through at Jack-in-the-Box! It knocked down a bunch of powerlines and stuff, caused a bunch of damage to buildings, and I think it did damage to the bridge as well, because there were more police and fire/rescue vehicles in one place than I'd ever seen, setting up a massive detour.

So yeah, my day was exciting. How was yours?

Those tacos make life worth living.

Edit, why the hell are we talking about tacos?

@Fox: D: Hurricane. I only said the tornado thing because I'm from Missouri and we get them a lot.

Whoo b-rank disaster movies!

Also I've never had Jack In The Box, but I love Taco John's.<3 :D

There is no Jack in the Box in Indiana, or anywhere around here as far as I know. :(

They don't have them here either.

Glad you survived the tornado. Now, let's hope crap-in-the-box doesn't kill you.

No tornadoes here. But we have volcanoes, earthquakes, and mudslides. And terrorists.

I suppose it could be worse.
