no barn cats were harmed.

I may be drummed out of the infirmary by our original poster for this, but I think I may be responsible for inadvertently saving a few cats: When the roof lifted, and cats sprinted from every opening (ripped barndoors included), I called cease fire--even though we were in a sudden target-rich environment.

Some mistakes a man has to live with.

P.S. Trivia question for ten points: What's the Army hand sign for cease-fire? It's still alive and waving on ranges today.

ON the edge of the insane feral.
Welcome PW, Proter forgot to introduce me as well.

Ah well, all that sap has gone to his head.

Howdy, have some grits, and some jello, and if you sneak out to the gazebo in my back yard, help yourself to a mason jar, I mixed a pitcher of Bloody Mary's.

I’m sure you’re all anxious to know I’m all right after Oregon’s annual tornado ripped a barn out of the nearby countryside yesterday.

Our EF-0's bluster through once a decade. I've missed every one of them. I'm afraid my life long dream of seeing a tornado will never come true.

Three years ago I was about to walk out into the height of Hurricane Igor, a cat-1, just to say I did it, when a metal road sign flew by the door neck high. Buk-buk.

Mmmmm... there's an idea! Grit Jell-O! We can make it in all kinds of flavors - ham gravy, cheese, shrimp, okra, sardine... we'll make a fortune!

Come to Oklahoma! You can see one a week! Shoot, back in '99, we had 77 on May 3rd alone!

I have never had non slimy okra, and I have tried it many times.

You don't cook cilantro with yours, do you?

*adds to Food Bucket List--OFG's okra*
Dang it! I really, really hate to do this ... but I have to agree with Haggis. Your okra cookin' sounds good, OFG. Save me a place at the table.

I'm also liking the idea of sardine-flavored jello. I don't like jello much, but that might convert me. (With a side o' grits.)

And furthermore, there's a greasy burger joint down here that makes deep-fried okra with onions and jalapenos.

I'm pretty sure "down here" isn't central inland Oregon, but this conversation has me looking for a café with grits and crisp okra on its menu.
