Sun through TUesday Gina and I will be headed to Chicago because of a death in her family.

While I'm gone,  Chas is in charge of witty remarks, Steve will be responsible for short jokes, and Lori will continue to bless all new tubs.

I'm sorry to hear that Bill.

We'll still be here when you get back.

Should be no ice storms this weekend.  Perhaps I'll take my test kit and test the water in the hotel spa  ;D

I just might take my laptop and log into work a couple of times, maybe they won't charge me for the day off.

What will be my purpose while you're gone?

Can I be in charge of picture editing/modifications?

Looks like you failed that interview using an animated jpg that doesn't work here!   You can keep an eye on Don Quixote and see what he is doing.

Ok, no ice storms, but I didn't think about tornados. We didn't see one, but I was looking for it.  At Indianapolis, I noticed it was hot and humid and strong winds out of the south.   Having lived in the midwest I've come to know thunderstorm weather. I commented we may be in for a bad one somewhere on the road. Well, about an hour NW of Indy on 65, the sky ahead looked black as midnight.  We drove into the a huge storm. I was watching the western skies as the wind picked up.  Within a minute the rain was blowing so hard across the road that I couldn't see the tail lights of the car 10 ft in front of me.  We got over to the side of the road at a rest area, but it was full out to the highway.

We just barely got off the road when a bassboat blew off the back of its trailer.  Shortly after a semi pulling two trailers blew over and off the road. This was followed by another trailer and a passing EXIT 1 mile sign.  It only lasted 5 minutes but we saw lots of wind damage.,  I'd estimate at its peak the winds were 60-80mph with a driving rain.  I'm pretty sure it was straight line winds and not a tornado.  I'm off to check the weather channels site

I guess I have lived in Oklahoma too long!  Glad you guys are ok!  We had a couple touch down last night in the state, thank goodness they were far enough away from me.

The MPLS/St.Paul area got smacked pretty good last night with sever T-storms and hail.  There were areas with 60 mph winds, and 2" hailstones.  So far about 100,00 are without electricity.  Morning rush hour is really going to stink.
