I'm Really Tired Of The Drama

Oklahoma's not Kansas Alabama...Totto...

I really don't want to come across here this morning as an angry, insensitive, asshole, but then again this is my blog and with friends and readers asking me to get back to business...

This morning I bring you this from an article on the recent tornadoes here in Oklahoma…

“Of the 60 EF5 tornadoes since 1950, Oklahoma and Alabama (emphasis mine) have been struck the most, seven times each. More than half of these top-of-the-scale twisters have occurred in just five states: Alabama, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. Fewer than 1 percent of all U.S. tornadoes are this violent -- only about 10 a year, according to research meteorologist Harold Brooks at the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman.”

As I’ve been saying out loud and on line here for years …
 
Having grown up in Alabama in the 1960’s and 1970’s, I’m not that concerned about the weather out here in Oklahoma being that bad because I’ve lived with it all along in the southeast…
 
OKLAHOMA  just has the reputation and the media coverage.

And another thing...

The guy that built the house we currently call the "Mid-West Turbo Pup Compound" situated on the banks of the less than "Mighty Arkansas River" was from post WWII Italy.

He built what is now our house during the "Cold War" with the communists in Russia and Eastern Europe.

You know what we have in our basement...a basement blasted out of the slope of solid granite rock when he started his home construction project?

A BOMB SHELTER!

Not a Tornado Shelter...I mean a freaking solid concrete sitting on solid rock with a steel door BOMB SHELTER.

A BOMB SHELTER.............................

It took a while for that to sink in the day I first looked at this house last July.

It's a room which can be accessed off of one of the bedrooms in our basement which has 12" thick concrete filled cinder block (also called CMU's--Concrete Masonry Units) walls, a concrete floor sitting on solid rock, and a 12" thick SOLID CONCRETE ROOF with a vent system which connects with the crawl space under Pat's office upstairs over the area.

We've been told that the room also originally had a "pee trench" which was filled in with concrete back in the late 1980's because it sometimes backed up because our septic tank is undersized for a family of 10 (yes...previous owners of our home had 8 kids and 2 adults in this household.)

So any way...

Today I find myself...while dodging our current Tornadic storms...planning the outfitting this wonderful "safe room" with a new Gun Safe for my soon to be illegal firearms and a reasonable quantity of provisions like some water and other food staples.

The other thing I want to do is replace the commercial steel door which swings "out" with a steel door which swings "in" so that in the event that we actually take a hit from a storm and there is debris outside that door we are not trapped inside as a result.

But any Wayyyyyyyyyyy...

I just think that it's more than a bit retarded how the media coverage of NORMAL SPRING/EARLY SUMMER WEATHER has swooned into the hysterical fits and burps and farts that it is today.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED!

It's just Weather...as it has been for the past zillion years and it will be day in and day out for the next zillion...

no matter what the tree hugging, tie died, kumbaya singing, patchouli stinking hippy Owl Gore following "Global Warming" "Climate Change" zealots tell you

You Know?

Regards Y'all...

I'm Through "Holding My Breath"

The Whole Holder Thing STINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Just a quick note here this evening Ladies and Gentlemen--after spending most of the past week and more recently the past quarter day dodging hail and tornadoes out here at the new Oklahoma Turbo Pup Compound...

I predict that sometime tomorrow afternoon that there will be a press release out of the Cessepool we call the "Whitehouse" indicating that the Shithead Attorney General of ours Eric Holder will have offered else have been asked by the Obamarama "administration" for his resignation.

Here's a college photo of this dangerous "useful idiot" from 1973:


(at least he wore a belt and didn't walk around showing 12" of boxer shorts and a zillion tattoos all over his body back then...)

Meanwhile, back to the resignation announcement...

You know that they routinely do that sort of thing on Friday's so that the leftist, socialist, Obama-adoring "Lamestream Media"--NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC ETA. al.--can proceed to ignore it for as long as possible while most of the low information voters (and some good, nice, innocent people) are not paying attention) are busy attending softball games else washing their cars and laying around their bar-b-que grills.

That said, All I say now is this...

Whether it was "asked for" or offered freely under duress...

I say that in the end if things work out the way I hope that when the sun rises on the first Monday in June 2013 that there could be one less corrupt, contemptible, useless anti-American half-breed working from inside the Imperial By-God Gummerntment of the United States of 'Merica screwing the folks on the street like you and me that not only pay their bloated salaries but see their money pissed away every day of every week of every year.

What bothers me most is that in earlier times the citizens would have taken things into their own hands with torches and pitch forks and that this bastard would have been already relegated to joining Bobby Kennedy to an early grave but the Chicago thug security details they have protecting his stupid mustache have kept him at the helm of screwing up everything from "Fast and Furious" to this latest BS we've all had to pay him to orchestrate."

REGARLESS OF THE METHOD AND THE TIMING, I SAY HIS DEPARTURE IS A GOOD THING  AS HE MOVES ON INTO THEE ANUS OF HISTORY.
