If it is time, it is time, and I seriously doubt it is your time.

I live right in the middle of that tornado thing. tornado alley I think is what they call it. We have had alot of warnings and have really really bad storms all the time. Strong winds and all that. I've also been in alot of bad eathquaks. Like the norhtridge one in 94, now that was scary.

There is a tornado here! I was watching outside and there was a HUGE ass storm, and all the chairs down at the pool blew over the fence on to the beach, and there are a bunch of them in the pool! After seeing that we put all the chairs we have on the balcony inside.. the wind is blowing so fast! It's blowing sand and water from the beach all the way up 4 stories to our balcony, and it just started to rain. There were swirl patterns all in the sky and the storm was really bad, so we turned on the TV to see a tornado warning.. we look outside and there is a damn tornado in the center of this huge storm!

I took some pictures of the storm but it was so dark that they didn't turn out.. you could see the lights on some of the shrimp boats on the water line, but the sky and clouds aren't even visible.
*edit* Bad_Bud, we're fine.. it was pretty freaky though.
