When life flashes before your eyes, report it to the police.

We had a very nice storm last night. Lots of rain (1/2 inch) a sprinkling of hail, and a tornado warning approximately 4 to 8 miles away from our house. We didn't see any tornados (it was nighttime, after all) so I guess that was a good thing, but it sure would have been cool to see one, and not die, and not have any material possessions destroyed, or have my life altered negatively in any way.

I also cleaned out some grain bins today, with the help of my cousin Candi. In one of the bins, some bird decided to make a home for some 6 or so ugly, hissing, baby birds. Instead of killing them directly, we relocated them into the forest-of-trees windbreak, where they might make some coyote happy.
