I also learned that a couple days ago a tornado touched down only 10 miles from my house. :shock:

Seee, Zeno's right.

Tornadoes usually never hit anyone important.


Tornadoes never hit my part of the world indeed :p

Apparently there is a condition where you can wake up to find yourself speaking a different accent called Foreign Accent Syndrome.

don't stand up so quickly, all the blood is rushing from your head and losing oxygen, causing you to almost pass out. Breathe deeply and get up slowly.
