A post containing profound wisdom and knowledge

[John]

Ha Ha, made you look! I was going to try to post something of great intelligence but you know, I couldn't think of anything so to mark my 4000 post, I'll just post this fluff.

See, I told you I had nothing intelligent to post, and I screwed it up to boot!

Man, if you have 40,000 posts here, then you are one bored individual.
Put down the mouse and go for a ride. (Fluffmiester)

I hope that's a typo 40,000 really makes it look like you need a hobby. Or you've been living in the basement to long.

Sorry I missed seeing it coming, John.
Congratulations.

Basement?

I would kill to have a basement. The ground here expands and contracts too much. It would knock the foundation walls all out of whack. Because of the ground, the slab that my house sits on is cracked, and it will cost over $6000 to have it repaired.

I feel your pain. if I dug one here I'd have an under-house swimming pool in less than a week....not to mention how fast the house would collapse. Oh well...hopefully construction starts on my new garage in the next month. Can't wait. 28'x36' feet of manly goodness!! Finally!!

Will finally have the room to begin the final build of my bike. I've had all the parts to do it for nearly a year, but have no space to do it in.

Congrats John. Lets see, I have only three Thousand Six Hundred and some-odd to catch up with you.

Where do you go during tornado warnings?

The safest place is in the bathroom, in my case. We are told to go to the smallest interior room in the house, and to cover with a mattress.

Under a desk

okay... so that's what they used to have us do at school...
What? under a desk ISN'T a safe place to be in a tornado?


Now, they at least have the kids go in the hallway where there are no windows...

I'm not EVEN going to comment on that one...

If it's safe enough for a nuclear (or is it nucular in Texas?) blast then it's safe enough for a twister.

Well... when you put it that way...

can't argue with government thinking (right Cody? )... all of those instructional videos can't be wrong...
