Saw where I missed a call from him today. Called back but no answer.
Place to put my Nonsense Thread.
- Thread starter lurkeraspect84
- Start date
Me also, around 3:15 pm central. I was seeing a doctor at the time and didn't hear the call, tried to call him back around 3:20 and no answer.
A lot of you guy know @lurkeraspect84
He got hit by the bad weather in Arkansas last week. He got a phone that worked and called me yesterday. He lost both cars etc.
Hopefully he will rejoin us when the damage is repaired.
Best of thought to our friend.

Proud to hear that they are alright. Hopefully he will get back to normal quickly.
Closer to abnormal!Proud to hear that they are alright. Hopefully he will get back to normal quickly.
He just called me too. Sounded bad. Close call. Said he’s not sure when he’ll be back on. Looks like we’ll have to spread the perversion around to pick up the slack.

I guess chronoligal order (note, didn't work) putting pieces together
Green skies. watch. until Sam got home. I was already home.
She comes in paniced. It's just a watch, whe says warning, but no sirens are going off
I go out and look again and the all the clouds are coming our way. NESW. very light green color
Not as dark as before.
We put the cats up in the safest place in our apartment. We grab the suitcase safe
and head her brothers
it's 2 miles if that. he has a basement. half way it starts. WARNING SIREN GOES OFF,city wide trashcans started swirling
infront of us. we drove thru them. we get up to 1/2 mile and something hits the windshield
infront of her. Very loud bang and our glass is shattered. I can't see except this small one area.
We're right there to his house
and boom. Took us both a second to realized what happened. Sam thought we ran into a down tree
by the time we're done wondering if we should get out of the car, we're under
a tree. a really large tree. I can touch the bark through the front windshield.
We both try to open the doors and the car starts shaking. I think the tree was holding us down.
I ask her to look at me.
Then immiadelly. an army of ppl started coming out of the woodwork for lack of better phrasing.
They start pulling on the branches not knowing what they're about to see. they said they were
fearing the most.
Let me try to explain what i've been trying to processess since then.
A very large tree fell on our car. a huge branch of the hit the front, another huge branch crushed the back.
A tree forks. the fork of the tree hit our front seats. I'm so glad Samanatha is short because the roof of the car
was crushed to her headrest. We were speeding down the road. The fork fell our our front seats. 1ft ahead, 1 foot back.
While moving. We're struggling with that.
Too large of a tree to be pulled off so again, seemed immediate a guy with a chainsaw shows up.
this is when fear hit in. I had a chainsaw 6-12" from my head I couldn't stop thinking about
wood bucking when cut. He got the my door open and the Sam crawed over and out.
We're both in shock? IDK, Sam pulls the safe out of the back seat. I take it and sit on it on the side of the road
in a daze. I took a really hard knock to the head . My forehead swells up like a neatherthal. Nurse, who was a storm chaser, came up and ask
me questions and I was fine at the time and Sam said I even started saying the alphabet backwards and made some joke
about Obama still being president. I don't remember that. We're 1 1/2m from our apartment. We deciced for me to walk back
with the safe and she'll stay with the car and was even helping move tree logs/branches b/c everyone was trying to get
to family.
I start walking back and it's all a blur. I saw so much destruction. No noise. No sirens. Nothing. Dead silence.
Then the sirens started and they didn't stop. Helicoptors, drones, atvs, sirens and more and more sirens.
Moblization of very large trucks (I'll get more into this later)
Folks standing in their yards just looking at their home. I had to look like a zombie. I was walking through yards
stepping over powerlines, carriend a really heavy suitcase safe. Folks just stared but I was not the attraction.
Got almost home and I see the church and school. Our apartment has to be gone. Before I can see our apartment, I start
scanning the area for any cats I might recognize. I got home and there's a hole in my bedroom roof but my windows are there,
but my backdoor was wide open. Wood, tree bark, straw everything is everywhere in the first floor. I secured the backdoor and
checked on my cats. They were fine physically. They all ran to the bedroom, realized everything was wet and hide in the back bedroom.
(concussed, dazed, james, Sam, shock, shaking, neck jam,

It's still hard to talk about the aftermath. We got off easy.
I could touch the tree bark thru the windshield.

I think you're the only guy on Rivals who actually has my address. Don't google it. It's pretty depressing.
But hey. I'm still here.
Split commissions suck. It's up to the salesmen to work it out.
Last I'll mention it unless asked.
You can see my home twice in this video.
Insurance claimed and towed my car today. Surprisingly, it started up and drove it onto the flatbed.
I dominated the entire old town/trees/houses and such. Wiped it right out. 100-75 year old houses with trees just as old are gone.
I'm shocked I got the return on the kia. We bought it for 9k 3 years ago, drove it for 100k miles and gettig 8k back. We're out of interest (we got it when interest was next to nothing) but that's basically a break even fee. i'm good with that. One day prior to to the tornado, I would have jumped at the offer they offered with it running.
What's crazy is, the car started and was drove up onto the flatbed.
No way I thought that was possbile, if Id known that I would have driven the mile or so back home with my head sticking out the window instead of the tow bill.(aka using one of my AAA yearly tows).
I live next to the school and drones were everywhere. No news helicopters. only military.
Lots of news fans parked out front. Jonesboro, Little Rock, Memphis, Nashville and Weatherchannel.
Only had my back down blown open and a hole in my bedroom roof.
A week without power...heirlooms come into play.
So does BIL who runs a parts store.

I used to walk/jog these streets early in the morning. They were quiet and next to my house.
Click this link to see what it used to look like.

Again, click the google maps to see what it used to look like, it was all old houses and huge trees. Now you can see the horizon.
Someone sent my wife a picture of us still in the car. They tried to pull it off first.
*I'm conflicted on someone taking the time to take a pic. I'm glad there is a pic, but also..., dicks.
I take that back. She recorded what happened to us.
