So I get off work today, stop at the grocery store on the way home, and when I am pulling into my driveway I get a call on my cell from the City of Willis. It's a recorded message that said, "There is a good chance of tornadic activity in Willis/Conroe until 9pm. Please be prepared to shelter in place".

Great. The contractor just finished repairing the last of my Hurricane Ike damage over the weekend. Just in time for the new season I guess.....

Off topic but not really since this is the OT. Did any of you guys see the cover of the new People magazine?

Valerie Bertinelli at 48 years old and looking damn hot I might add.....

I never really cared for the Sammy version of VH (I really dig Sammy on his own though) but this is a stellar performance...

Man I was having such a great day today, then it felt like i got booted right in the nuts.

My uncle, great man, lived with his mother on my grandfathers farm, huge ford man, could fix ANYTHING, loved auction sales, and antiques, passed away. He lived the farm life, was cutting down a tree and apparantly the tree fell down and either hit him, or fell on him, or something. Getting wood to heat his, and my grandmothers house.

Saddens me very much, I always got along so well with him, and had so much in common with him. Our love of vehicles, passion for fixing thing, and both being a little bit of know it alls. Im gonna miss him very much. I was really looking forward to getting this one old truck from him, and getting lots of parts, tips and advice from him regarding it.

I dont wanna sound to damn mushy/negative on here but damn, im one un happy camper right now.

Sorry to hear that Sheldon.

Finally checked my email, from a week ago, after getting caught up here(I have time to do that since its been so slow,Ha Ha). Looks like Metallica is hitting the John Paul Jones arena in Charlottesville on Oct. 18.....I'm so hitting that, or at least try to. Scott, you did it after posting those pics of them the other day.

Sheldon I am so sorry for your loss my brother. Please don't feel negative or mushy, you are family to us and that is what family is for. J-L and I will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. If there is anything that I can do please don't hesitate to ask.
