I wouldn't fault anyone for reading MAD Magazine.

Not so much batsignal, as theoretically a bitching communications medium. Ham radio on steroids, jacked on meth and snorting PCP.

At least people are reading.

Except the Lunch Lady. She's mean.

I hear you have a thing called "chicken salt."

Found it! It wasn't their van, but someone else's being blown down the highway.

None of the obits I've read mention Uneasy Rider. My clear favorite.

"Madisons" were borne out of the 6-day races (or is it the other way around?). If you haven't ridden track, it's a little hard to comprehend riding on a single speed, fixed gear bike, grabbing the hand of your teammate behind you, and trying to slingshot them forward, as you ride on a highly banked track sans brakes. I have raced track, but I haven't tried *that*. Keirin was nutty enough. Edit job for clarity.

. . .and there are several military medical bases in Texas, ja? Ft. Sam Houston (which is in San Antonio?) comes to mind.

No, I understand you're asking a legit question. If it were me, I'd duck the fuck down in the truck as low as I could, rather than sitting up as proud as I can to receive my beating from Mother Nature. That's why I think he's a dumbass. Edit to say that folks have taken the "crawl up to the crotch of the bridge/enbankment" approached and also lived to tell bout it. There's a good movie of that somewhere on youtube. IIRC, their van gets blown down the highway.

It's hard to draw a lot of conclusions from this data, except for "check back in 30 days" to see what things look like. Lag time from infection to hospitalization, to recovery (or the other alternative) is important, and not always easily captured.

Trying to think in German makes my head hurt. Ach.

Dumbass, indeed. All it takes is one decent sized stick, rock, whatever going through the windshield and pithing you to ruin your day.

1. Don't try to out run a tornado 2. If you have to, move away at right angles to the direction of the tornado's path. If you can't do that, see #1.

Cue the Anti-vaxxers. . .
