we have those about once a week here - had them yesterday. but seriously, since moving to Kansas, I never thought much about tornado's, but now I do. I thought it would be cool to see one until I saw the damage in Greensburg from last year and during a warning (with sirens going off) I went upstairs out of the basement to get something and the winds were ridiculous. Now I do not care about seeing one. Go CUBS tonight! btw - I how you are all safe...
