If you follow this link there is a really neat video of the twisters.

It's going to be an interesting walk to work!
So, the last place I lived, Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), was full of stray
cats, everywhere, cats.
Here, I rarely see a stray cat, maybe once since I've been here, but
dogs on the other hand, everyday. Unfortunately most of the stray dogs
I see have collars. Why is that? Because about 90% of the people with
dogs "walk" their dogs without leashes. I'll give them kudos for well
behaved dogs, but it's that 10% which haven't learned that walk away and
don't come back.
In typical Doc Report book reporting fashion I can say that this wasn't
the best book I've read, but not necessarily the worst. It's about a
series of murders in Germany between the wars. It's pretty easy to get
lost in the different characters in the book. By the end of the book, I
was completely lost, thought I would be surprised at the revealing of
the killer, only I couldn't remember when this person was even
mentioned, LOL.
There is a movie by the same name, but it's not related to the book.
Low and behold, it's here. We have all of the windows shut, Chris has
been coughing and wheezing, it's nasty.
Attached is a photo I took from our balcony.
Tonight Chris is in the kitchen and she shows me one on the peppers and
said, "We should have got the smaller peppers, I had one and they aren't
hot at all", so she aims that pepper at my mouth and I take a big bit
and the steam whistle blows from my ears! I look at her and said "These
have a pretty good kick to them" (Understatement), to that Chris
finishes the pepper and says "No they don't", 2 seconds later her eyes
lit up. Unfortunately it made her rather sick as she has stomach problems.
Now would you chomp on one these peppers?
This morning Chris had noticed that some of the plants had been dug up,
sign that Tawney had been there, but how?
Much to her surprise she saw Tawney on the back patio batting around a
cat toy. As it turn out, Tawney can turn herself in to a kitty pancake
and slide under the door. Chris demonstrated this by tossing a cherry
tomato onto the patio, Tawney's eyeballs lit up and within a minute she
squashed herself under the patio door to get to her prize.
I have to admit it was pretty funny, but I do hope Tawney fattens up
soon so she doesn't fit under the door! :-D
Now I really second think having a big fat chivito sandwhich at 100
pesos a pop, yeah, that's a $5.00 chivito, a really good, meaty, juicy,
$5 chivito.
Ymmmmmm, chivito!
Not only is there no Wiskas pouch, but nor is there Wiskas in the can.
The grocery store had some strange cat food in the can that I tried with
the cats and they showed there displeasure fairly quickly.
The cats haven't run away yet!
Ops Center by Tom Clancy, I've never read a Tom Clancy novel, this one
was pretty good, but I don't see me reading anymore. I always thought
that Clancy novels were to cliche'.
Sandbox - various writers - Doonesbury.com, blog entries by soldiers in
Iraq and Afghanistan.
Speaking of Iraq, they've had some pretty bad days in my old stomping
grounds, the Green Zone. This weekend, 2 killed and 17 wounded, that's
4 Americans killed there in as many months : (
