R.I.P. Oklahoma

[Rev'd Seventy-Six]

My vote is we are In The Shit. Downtown metro Atl. took a tornado six
years ago, totally out of the blue. Whole streets were glutted with
shards for weeks after. Took two months and disaster relief to get the
cityscape glittering again. We were lucky. I grew up in the ass-end of
tornado alley and find the uptick frankly terrifying. A twister in the
countryside is enough of a sumbitch. Last thing you want is one all
methed-up with a craw fulla glass...
