    Tornado warning with sirens going off here in town. Some wicked looking clouds.

    @WeberWho - don't F with Mother Nature.  My first up close deal with a tornado (EF-1) was the end of April.  Debris field was around 3/4 mile from the house (closest I have ever been) and very defined.  Don't need to see such destruction again.  Fortunately no one killed but some healthy property damage.  
    Stay safe.

    That's some scary stuff @lousubcap Nothing too traumatic here. Just some formations being spotted. Light rain. Surrounding areas had hail. Some more severe weather on its way. I'm glad this previous one didn't morph into anything else

    **** of a time getting home from work tonight; a private plane nose-dived onto I-15 northbound, four killed.  This might be on your national news, it was pretty bad; thoughts to the families.

    One of my kids found my pigtail flipper!  Right were I left it .  . . in the fishing boat.  Those kids move everything!  Been missing it sooooo long. . . I guess I should go fishing more often.  Every time i cant find a lure or rig i knew I once had, I just check one of the kids tackle boxes.  Somehow, they are taking their inheritances prematurely.

    I can't tell you how many times I have looked for a tool (of the mechanic type) and it had disappeared. Some of the things my son used them for, blew my mind....like to smoke things (not food). Things are back to normal now....as both are grown and out on their own. I am probably just doing a better job of putting my tools back to where I keep them.

    I've gotten so used to my pig tail flipper, I would be searching for it too.  Never thought I would like such a thing.

    May you have to open a new bottle before it's done....assuming that is a good thing.
    Yeah if I had another one to open......oh wait...
    That is a nice cork collection you have there.

    Keep moving that tent and hydrating. Your outdoor kitchen is looking good.
    We're getting hit with rain bands so no outdoor work for me!! :)

    Just found out that the company I currently work for is probably going out of business tomorrow, laying everyone off in the process. Luckily my next opportunity is right around the corner.

    @foghorn 5 people fishing. My son and I pulled in 2 a piece. Good morning until he got his share of the 4' seas.  Spent the last two hours bent over the gunwales.

    I feel your pain. My company just sold and we aren't sure if they are keeping us or not. Nothing like uncertainty looming over your head. O'well. That's the oil field.  Hopefully my 7 years pays off.

    @Battleborn - congrats on having a follow-on plan ready to go.  Don't know your line of work but given the speed with which things are moving, I would guess that unfortunately such "surprises" may be the norm in your industry.
    Regardless, spineless for waiting til Friday but again the norm these days.
