The weather here is completely fucking insane. Today we had massive thunder storms, hurricanes and flash floods. Tomorrow there is going to be snow. Friday it is supposed to be 75. Seriously, what the fuck?
I was sitting here this morning and the crazy storm was blowing. All of a sudden I heard a siren of some sort. It was coming from outside, an area with more stuff a couple hundred yards away. I realized it must be a tornado siren. I got onto the google and did some looking. There was a tornado warning in our area. Fucking A. I elected to let Wifey sleep because I couldn't think of anything great to do. Without a basement the best I can think of is to go to an interior room if a tornado strikes.
So yeah the weather here is totally nuts.
Also every dog I see seems to be a pit bull. Not sure what to make of that.
Today I swung by the gun shop and they had a nice AK with a folding stock. They wanted $675 for it. Fricking aye. I got my AK (WASR-10, whatever) for a bit under $400 last summer. Not sure if I will ever got another one but definitely won't at these prices.

Welcome to the South in spring!
Stephen, This weather is completely ridiculous. Hopefully at least during the summer at least I will know what to expect.
Bless your heart - Yes, welcome to the South.
The joke here in Oklahoma is you can tell an Oklahoman by the lawn chair in the front yard when the tornado sirens go off. We take them seriously - we know when they are heading for us and if they arent, we stand in the yard and watch...
I like the weird weather - it makes things interesting.
Texas has extreme weather. We never know what will happen during the day!
I will never leave in Tornado Alley ever again. I did pick up on great instinct for living there. I can feel the weather. Seriously feel it. People become attuned to what is going one when they live in those areas long enough.
AK prices are up big time, and have been since November. Same applies to other rifles. The import bans do not help. I remember kits at 60 bucks back when I first looked into it. Today they are about 400. I wish I had the drive to obtain them back in the day for the projekt. I may never do Projekt AK. *shrugs* If I do it is because I lumped it and went with the market. It may never come down again to what it was to be honest. Sucks I know.
The South is a unique area in many respects. The weather is often erratic and we are just getting into the much dreaded tornado season. The Pit Bull is the dog of choice for a lot of folks here because they are loyal and highly protective. They are also unpredictable and will attack people at the drop of a hat so I steer clear of them myself. There's nowhere like the South.
The south is great when the weather is nice. Was staioned in Fla. for a year and you could set your watch by the summer storms. I can do without the fleas, chiggers, flying roaches and various other bothersome incects. The north is great since where I live we have No fleas, no termites, flying roaches or chiggers. We do have skitters though. The weather is not as nice most of the time but we survive. Yes we get a tornado or two but not every year.
