STORMS A COMIN' EVERYONE TAKE COVER

 

A storm system approaching from the west has resulted in the National Weather Service issuing a severe thunderstorm watch for all of Northern Illinois tonight.

 

The watch, which warns of hail up to 2 inches in diameter, high winds with gusts as high as 80 m.p.h., frequent lightning and heavy rain that could lead to localized flooding, is in effect until 10 p.m., according to the agency website. In one statement on the website, the agency said of the approaching weather: "These are very dangerous storms."

 

Good thing I have a brand new generator sitting in my garage that won't be used.

Jenks,

 

All I can say is what I tell clients. If the worst thing that ever happens to you is that you spent to much on (insert insurance, incorporating) consider yourself lucky.

 

I know that Id rather jinx myself by getting a generator that I never have to use, instead of one day waking up to an apocalypse and saying "Well at least I got a generator."

 

:D

No I know. It's better to have one in case I need it than wish I had one when I need it.

 

My sister in Rock Island just sent me some pretty crazy pictures of her street. Might have had a tornado blow through as there are several really old trees that were knocked down.

Every five minutes the Weather Channel keeps mentioning that there are 60+ mph winds in the Chicago area and then they show Wrigley Field and mention that the Cubs are not at home today. Not one mention of the Sox, so f*** them!

I work in Elk Grove and as I drove home at the Higgins/Elmhurst intersection, there is a weird "Cash 4 gold" smoke shop type place at the corner. In the parking lot, they have a drive thru coffee stand named Twin Peaks Coffee. Lo and behold, as I drive by I notice that the female server is wearing nothing but a bikini. Heavenly Bodies is across the street, so they may be related, but it's the most random thing in the middle of a heavily industrial area.

Haha, I pass this everyday on the way to work as well.

 

It HAS to be related to Heavenly Bodies, just has to.

I hate cars. I started to change my oil on Monday night and ended up breaking the oil drain plug. Half of the bolt was stuck in the pan. Had to take the day off work yesterday to take it to the dealer. $100 bucks later, it's fixed and my oil got changed. I guess I should be thankful the dealer didn't screw me by saying I needed a whole new oil pan, but it still sucks. There went all the savings for changing the oil myself the last few times.

I'm with you on that first sentence. My car needs an oil change, brakes and tires. I could do the first two things myself but I just don't have the time between working, camping and my kids baseball games. On the other hand I really don't want to take it somewhere and spend 3 times the amount.

 

I have another car that I'm planning on giving to my daughter whenever she gets her license that just won't stay running. I have no idea what's wrong with it and I would have to call a tow truck to even get it someplace to have it looked at. I'm debating on whether it's worth dumping more money into it or just selling it for whatever I can get and worry about getting her another car after she actually gets her license and maybe a job to help pay for it.

 

This all on top of getting my renewal for my insurance and seeing my premium has increased. The insurance company says it's because repair/medical costs have increased. :angry:
