Amber Alert

Amber alert ticker for blogs and websites



Tint the Twister!

Color a cowboy riding a tornado at the NWS weather site:

From the site:

A wild ride for sure! However, tornadoes are nothing you can play around. If you hear a tornado warning for your area or see a tornado, take cover immediately a well-built building or house.

(I'm sure they meant to say take cover "in"...not sure I would want to stick around to cover a building or house, well-built or not)



Color the picture by clicking on a color swatch at the bottom of the image then click on the image where you want to apply that color. Color off-line by downloading and printing the pdf version.

That cowboy has the biggest nose of any I've ever seen.

I'm not sure I should even mention his saddle horn.

Cast Away Over/Under

"Cast Away" is showing tonight on the FX channel, coming on in less than 45 minutes and again immediately after.

I wonder how many hits my two posts will get?

Cast Away Crossroads

Arrington Ranch House

I'm setting the line at 10. Any takers?

I'm also thinking of going back to the intersection, sweeping up some gravel and selling it on eBay.



UPDATE: The first showing is just ending and there's been five (5) visitors so far. Looks like the over/under may be too close to call. OTOH, it's only 8 PST on the coast, so maybe we'll get the California crowd to give it to the "over".


A quick count shows there were 14 more after the ending of the first showing, bringing the total up to 19. The bad thing about the Feedjit counter is that it allows someone to opt out and delete their visit.

Wow, a word that describes both politicians AND televangelists.
