How can we cherish those things that cannot be looked upon as anything similar to something we've known to be true, or at least partly true given the increasing revelation that's permitted us by fate and whatever forces choose to intercede on our behalf, particularly when we deem ourselves unworthy of a knowledge that only leads to more and more questions that cannot be answered, much less resolved between two political parties with disparate paths toward a goal which some would say is the same? |

oohhhh... Red Rubber Ball!!
I should have known, you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this
And I've learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me
And I think.. it's gonna be alright... yea.. the worst is over now.. the mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball! |

he first step to surviving a tornado is to listen for tornado watches and warnings. A tornado watch means that conditions are favorable for a tornado to form. A tornado warning means there is immediate danger of a tornado.
Local radio and television stations serve a great purpose in notifying us of severe weather, but are not always available or turned on. Outdoor warning sirens are also good warning devices.
But the best way to hear tornado warnings in your home is a NOAA weather radio, which picks up around-the-clock broadcasts from the National Weather Service and sounds a loud alarm in the event a warning is issued.
Choose a safe place. Practice being prepared.
Pick out a safe place in your home and make sure all family members, especially children, know to go there in the event of a tornado warning. Conduct periodic tornado drills, so everyone remembers what to do when a tornado is approaching. Stress the importance of staying calm.
If you live in a home…
The safest place in your home in the event of a tornado is on the lowest level, preferably the basement, if you have one. Choose a small room away from windows, such as a closet, hallway or bathroom. Stay near the center of the house to put as many walls as possible between you and a tornado. Close any doors in the room. If your safest room is the first-floor bathroom, grab a mattress or some cushions, get in the tub and put the mattress or cushions over your head for protection.
If you live in a mobile home…
Pick a nearby shelter to go to in the event of a severe weather threat. Should a tornado warning sound, get out immediately and head for safety in a nearby shelter or the basement of a nearby building. If there is no time to get to a shelter, lie flat in a ditch, culvert or other low-lying area and cover your head with your arms and hands. Do not try to flee a tornado in a vehicle.
Know what to do if you are caught outdoors
If you're caught outdoors, hurry to the basement of a nearby sturdy structure or building. Or lie flat in a ditch, culvert or other low-lying area and cover you head with your arms and hands. Do not remain in a vehicle during a tornado. Immediately get out and lie flat in the lowest nearby area, protecting your head with your arms and hands. |

If you can keep your head while all those about you are losing theirs,
You obviously have no grasp of the gravity of the situation. |

Inspirational statements, expressed with cynicism.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Of course, so does falling down a flight of stairs.
Never say die. I've tried, and it doesn't actually make people die.
Never underestimate your ability to overestimate your ability.
Laughter is the best medicine, but in certain situations the Heimlich maneuver may be more appropriate.
It takes a village to raise a child to hate all of the people in the next village.
The key to someone's heart is never lost: It's just that the locks were changed 'cause you're some sort of psycho.
You have to learn to crawl before you can grovel.
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, you're probably the executioner.
Every dog has his day. Of course, his day consists of smelling other dogs' butts.
You've got to kiss a lot of frogs before you find the prince. But he probably isn't going to be interested in some frog-kisser.
True beauty is on the inside, where no one will ever see it.
One person can make a difference, if that person is, like, Bill Gates or whatzisname, the speaker of the House of Representatives.
Aspire to greatness. But remember that no one ever assassinated a refrigerator repairman.
A high tide lifts all boats, except those with a big gaping hole in the bottom.
There are none so blind as those who have been in an accident at a fertilizer factory.
You can run but you can't hide, except apparently along the Afghan -Pakistani border.
Say not that honor is the child of boldness, nor believe that the hazard of life alone can pay the price of it; it is not the action that is due, but to the manner of performing it. You got all that? Me neither.
You can do anything if you want it bad enough. That is why we see so many people who can fly.
Every failure is a step to success up a ladder that will eventually collapse under the weight of all those failures. |
