Tornado on Oahu

The last time I was on Oahu I saw allot of things that made me scratch my head, but this made me really stand in disbelief!

"an hour later Golfers were back out on the sun drenched course" Are you freakin kidding me :shock: Guess they figured it wouldn't strike twice......

I didn't grow up in tornado country, but my grand parents did (Oklahoma, Arkansas) so I grew up hearing the tales of living in tornado alley. Since then I've made regular trips to tornado country for work. So when I saw that, all I could think of was WTF??

On another note, I just saw on the news last night that a tornado touched down in Oklahoma City just three blocks from where I'll be staying in March! Haven't called yet to see if my room reservations are still good, or I need to bring a tent? :razz:

I was almost there when it hit, actually I was on OKC :sad: I shagged ass to the Texas line, and barley missed the one that hit Lone Grove, Ok. I went through there the next day on my next run, and that town had about a 1/2 mile path cut right through the middle, many were killed, and the devastation was terrible :sad:

I have survived 3 tornados, don't care to go for 4!

DAYME! Don't blame you there! But then when I talk to folks in that area of the country about not wanting to move down to OKC because of the tornados', I'm reminded that they have yet to have a volcano erupt in their back yard. LOL

2 of the tornados were in Kansas, the other in Western Colorado. By the third one I wasn't nearly as scared, I didn't even piss my pants :ass:

No Tornados in B.C. eh Calli

or Volcanos.....yet
