***CRIMSON RED DAILY THREAD***

Merry Thursday! We are finally getting warmer weather, but the rain comes with it and all the way through the weekend. Ugh!

 

We are waiting for the sirens.  None yet.  The county and city have cancelled classes for the day.  It's a nasty one out there.

Yeah, I'm watching TWC now. Round 2 for you guys. Stay alert my friend.

Much of Alabama is under a Torcon 9.  Eyes to the sky errbody. 

[Chechem]

Wow, TORCON-9 again?  Thanks for that, 2.

Our morning threat has passed.  It'll be an all-day event, but at least this batch of thunderstorms moved NE of us. 
Look out, Alabama!

I have a wife and two daughters. I know as much about kangaroos as I do women and I know nothing about kangaroos.

  Wife and three daughters here. I feel your pain.

Did you guys see the video of the kangaroo hoping down a road in rural Alabama a couple weeks ago?  Some guy was transporting it from Louisiana to North Carolina (I think that was the route), and it got loose in Alabama.   That would be quite a surreal sight to encounter.

If you are on Facebook you saw it. It also made national news.

I'll never forget the story that Kuiyam told me one time when we were playing golf:

He was playing golf in Australia and said there were knagaroos all over the golf course. He said there were 2 kangaroos off to the right of the fairway and they were leaning on each other's back sleeping. Kuiyam hit his drive and hit one of the kangaroos, waking him up abruptly. The kangaroo thought the other kangaroo hit him, turned around and started beating the crap out of him.

I wonder how those guys are doing these days.

I caught up wuth Kuiyam on Linkedin about a year ago and he said they were all good. The last time I talked with him was about 3 years ago. He said Jesse had started a Gym to help aspiring Australian athletes who wanted to give a shot at the US, and help train them. I hope that's turned out well for him. At that time, Jesse had a new son. Probably has a slew of them by now.

If we can keep the sun behind the clouds we will be a lot better off. RTR!

[Chechem]

LOTS of tornado news yesterday, and it was all bad.  At least 5 were killed in Calhoun County, AL (NE of B'ham).  Hope everybody is okay.  Ricky was in an area where several passed.  I talked with RE (near Tuscaloosa), and he's okay.


Keep your loved ones close today.
