So Iowa City got leveled by a tornado last night, shit was flying around like crazy. The power went out and we were all hunkered in the basement hallway. In the "aftermath" we went on a beeer run and the city was just decimated.

I went walkin' around this morning to take a peek and these are some shots I took.

I dont think you're far off with that. Weather has been strange to some extent worldwide in the past few years. Be it major like the Tsunami, Hurricanes, or Tornados, or just minor oddities like the insanely warm winter that my part of the world just experianced...I think you're right. Mother Nature's buiding up to something crazy. We're screwed.

I've never experienced any kind of natural disasters. The town's next to us have had tornados. & once in high school, I was stuck in science class for 3 hours cuz everyone was paranoid that there was gonna be a tornado. The sky turned all green & it was quite windy. We even spent about 2 of those 3 hours sitting in the hallway, (tornado drill) but all the students were just talking & glad to get some time off of school, as we were in school still. And once there places around here got flooded, including parts of the high school. But not where I'm at. Not that I'm complaining at all. I think I can live the rest of my life just fine, not being through anyhing like that.

Supposedly there was a hurricane here when I was little...I find that kind of hard to believe though.

Exactly, thats what I find hard to believe. My parents said there was, but I think they have to be exaggerating.

I've been in a few tornados, and I slept through an earthquake once...
