At Least I'm Not In A Drive-In Movie

So, London has been hit by a tornado.

Not the same kind of mile-wide tornados that hit Oklahoma or any of the other States, it was quite a smally. But a Tornado? In London? It reminds me of when my family and I went to watch 'Twister' in a drive-in movie the day before we flew to Oklahoma. I did NOT want to go! That movie firmly cemented my fear of tornadoes - pretty much the same as what Jaws has done for sharks. And now we're having these bad boys in England??!

"Witnesses said there was heavy rain and sleet, then debris flying through the air."

Global Warming is indeed an interesting phenomenon!

Weird! I can't believe it!!! But isn't global warming just something that Al Gore made up???? hehehe.

Global warming canNOT be true because the Republicans and evangelicals don't believe in it.

Was that anywhere near you? That is a big tree down on the ground!

I will NOT enter the global warming fray. Will Not.

to be honest, i didn't know there was a discussion about whether it was true or not - sorry if i brought up an issue!!

someone else said...

Actually, there was not a discussion. I was commenting off of Allison's comment. We're just both naughty. Sorry....

Rachel said...

MG - what i meant by "i didn't know there was a discussion" was i didn't realise there was a debate in the States over whether global warming actually existed.. In the UK, it's thought of as a fact..

You are allowed to say whatever you want on here, nothing is censored! :)

Hehehe. Yes, I was being naughty. I couldn't resist. =)

Just for your info, Rach, Al Gore made a movie about global warming, so some people reject the idea because they don't like him. I guess anything he supports must be false.

Sometimes it's hard to get actual facts about things on the news here - everything has its spin, even when it claims it doesn't. Oh dear, I think I'm being naughty again.

Grins, love and hugs to all.

Hey MG, naughty girls are the funest! I could not have married anything other.

Well, I think the Republicans now believe that the world in round and that it actually revolves around the sun. They do adopt scientific logic/fact/reason , it just takes a little longer :) And, they find a nice way to fit it in so it doesn't contradict faith in God either.

Rachel, it is so funny that you don’t know what is the socially non-acceptable things to speak of here. I love it! It’s not your fault, you just don’t live in it. But, its funny when it is said in such pure innocence. You’re one of the best SIL’s ever. EVER!

Allie, you'd better stop! We might get banned from blogs as well! ;>)

Rach, it is actually kinda wierd but I had a bad dream about a tornado that night in which I woke up screaming - ask Allie.... It was horrible.

Before anyone gets offended at anonymous - again - I just want to remind you all that 98% of what he says shouldn't be taken seriously. Ever. You can take the bait if you want, or just laugh. I find laughter best.

I know he was just mostly kidding in his comment above. I say mostly, because of course there's a grain of truth in it, although exaggerated for your benefit.

someone else said...

I'm laughing out loud here all by myself, trying to come up with some pithy remark.

No, the world does not revolve around the sun. It revolves around GW, et al.

Actually, I just say these things to get a rise out of the family, if they happen to stop by. :) It's so much healthier if I can laugh at myself.

I think that anonymous is the funniest ever. I always take offense to him/her/it/whatever. I think Al Gore totally made it up. Didn't he invent the internet too?? I love the controversy. Just keep posting the facts of the rest of the world rach, and we'll debate them over here in america. :)
