The most unbelievable part of that movie was that anybody would choose Helen Hunt over Jamie Gertz. :spock:

Also, just heard the first rumblings of distant thunder. Looks like the storm is finally knocking on my door.

Union is like 10 minutes from Marshalltown. I'm actually just south of there another 10 minutes or so.

I taught at BCLUW from 1995-2001. Lived in Melbourne for a year and then moved to Story City. Then to MPLS.

Zenos pizza in M'town, if you ever get over there

Dude, I live just south of there between Kellogg and Laurel.

There's a good BBQ joint there and plenty of great Mexican food.

Been a couple of decades for me going there, unfortunately

Might have been an improvement.

This shit was pretty much played out by the time it got to me. Some wind, a few minutes of heavy rain, one nearby lightning strike that rattled the house and scared the **** out of the cats, and it was gone. Heard another area's tornado siren going off in the distance, but I don't think anything came of it.

Found three spots in our new siding and already repaired it this morning. Fortunately I had saved a bunch of it. Not enough to justify a claim and $3000 deductible. ;)

14. ugh

Just imagine if it was during the day and all the people going out to see it?

Lives saved.

i have like an entire ****ing tree to cut up and burn
