Tornado Close Call

A tornado passed about a mile south of me about 15 minutes ago. In fact, I just got out of my basement. The news is reporting heavy damage to the K-Mart and Payless Shoe store here in town. On the scanner, there are reports of a trailer that got blown onto the highway from a parking lot in front of the Home Depot. I am still frazled by this. I have never seen the big oaks across the street sway like that.

Do files get embarrassed when they get unzipped?

And the first place you turn to is. . . VisorCentral! Look at those priorities!
I'm just kidding (sort of), I've done that too, numerous times.

Actually, when I saw that there might be a tornado headed for here, I made a bee-line for the basement, not even worrying about turning off the computer. My browser was still open so I just posted here.

Is it a bad thing if water is leaking from the fuse box? I noticed that while I was in the basement.

Water and electricity are not a good combination...
