cory5412 68KMLA Comrade-in-Arms USA 4679 Posts	Posted - 28 Jul 2003 : 03:52:42 I thought I'd bring up this nicen'n friendly topic of "how's the weather today?" I'll start off the topic by saying I'M PHREAKIN SCARED!!!! it's like... 3:45 in the morning right? and I'm awakened from a dream about our old 'skateboard car' by this howling sound... there's a dust storm a'happenin'! in the living room, the poor unfortunate door, RIGHT FRUDKING IN FRONT OF MY COMPUTERS had come open!!! so I closed that... Just as of late... there's been two flashes of lightning that I can see... and they both seemed pretty far away... I really do wonder what it looks like outside... just in the past few weeks we've had some wild rides waiting these dust storms out inside mom's trailer and even while in our house... now that our Single-Wide manufactured home has it's skirting (finally no naked houses) it seems alot more stable in the high winds... and NOW I'm thinking to myself... "OMG"!!!!!!! "MOM & DAD HAVE THAT JOB AT THE ARIZONA FORD PROVING GROUND!" "Are they OK???"!!!!! this is partially because mom mentioned maybe having a "Trailer Tow" where they tow a weighted (or not! :!) trailer out on the open highway... I really should be asleep now... and I'll try again in a few minutes, but with that kind of noise in the bedroom I doubt that I'll be able to. I also doubt that I'll be able to close the windows... go figure.

The Balance Of Judgement Senior Member Ivory Coast 1006 Posts	Posted - 28 Jul 2003 : 10:04:55 Over here it is hot. Really hot. So, I'm staying in unless I have to go out, or if there is something I want to do, like perhaps a concert on Friday and an outing with my best friend..I promised her I'd get her a Mike's Hard Lemonade drink... She's underage but I know her enough that she'll be with me when she has the drink and it's not gonna send her for a loop.....One can won't do anything. Her parents are just really..ummm...dumb. heheheh! I'm breaking out in the giggles! We were laughing so hard the other day on the phone, we both just all of a sudden in life start laughing for no apprent reason. It's a blast.
cory5412 68KMLA Comrade-in-Arms USA 4679 Posts	Posted - 28 Jul 2003 : 10:23:39 lol... exactly "how" underage is she? yeah... it's always hot her... and the rainless monsoons make it "hot and windy" we're in a valley with mountain ranges on either side of us, and it does rain occasionally on the other sides in this case, the grass really IS greener on the other side!

It was the best adrenaline rush I ever had, I was alive that night. Lightening going every, thunder. Yeah!

wisof Junior Member USA 257 Posts	Posted - 31 Jul 2003 : 12:27:01 thunderstorm in CO fried my computer 3 years back. I had a Voodoo 3500 with the TV tuner. I had about a 25' coax cable going from the downstairs, outside of the house, and up to my room. Bye bye mobo. . . if you have any sort of coaxial cable hooked up to your machines. . .get those lil rubber insulator things to stick onto the ends. . . Weather in Boulder, CO is beautiful as always! In the summer it rains for about 5-15 minutes at exactly 3pm daily (at least 4 times/week minimum). . .and look, it just started raining! Just like clock work. It cools everything down. this place has the most amazing weather! _________________________ I have a problem with vintage electronics. . .I am working on it.

I guess it's supposed to continue for the rest of the weekend too. Some huge storm has decended from Canada.

You must live somewhere near where I do then, becase that same storm actually made it RAIN here! It's been really dry and unusually cold, so you know it must be a strong storm when it actually rains. Then you also said you saw skamen's Macs and he lives over in Big Rapids. Edited by - The Lightning Stalker on 01 Aug 2003 19:39:49

I also believe I've seen people here who say they were from WA... but not quite... I now live in Kingman/Golden Valley, AZ... so my closest MLAers would actually be the ones living in Las Vegas.
