Now there is a good song. I find it hard sometimes to find one with good sound quality.
Some are just recordings at concerts a long way off. See I like that it's sound quality was good.

The song is damn good also.

Thanks girl, I can spot your problem right now.
They underestimate how much you know about certain things and you do put them in there place.
Then they get amped up when you do it.

I just fucking hate it when wuss-ass armchair quarterbacks dive in on somebody and attack them for a point of grammar that doesn't make a dime's worth of difference in whether the words are clear and communicate the meaning or not.

Writing is about communication, dammit.

Fuck grammar.

I know how to use it. It's a tool. It's not a mandate.

Dammit.

If I can understand what somebody is saying, screw grammar.

My grammar suckth. Just as long as we get the point screw off. They do that to make you feel less than they are.
I agree with that they just want to agitate someone. Dog pile 101 here. If you get into it with someone you post may need a few minuets to create but his two friends keep asking questions you feel should be answered. So the big post to prove a point is rushed and may have mistakes.
The Hyena way of taking big stuff down. Now if you have a couple of friends they keep him busy until your post is done.Then you knock him out.
That is why we say if you get stuck in a bad place call us.We keep them busy while you think out that great post that proves your point.
Make any sense at all? Sounded good in my head.

We had a monsoon micro cell hit,  tons of lightning and major winds.  I had already buttoned up our stuff pretty good.  But it was really knarly for about 25mins.  The power went off but came right back on.

I know the pic is horrible. But the tree are sideways.


It's passed now but we got damage in the neighborhood.  Took the limb off this 25 year old mesquite tree.   I hope it survives.



You can see the scar where the limb came off up high.



As fast as it came it has moved on,  although we have another one forming up right over the city moving our way.

Double rainbow before the next cell.... Lol


Unfortunately the major arterial road to our house is now closed with all the washes running and overflowing.   Police are at each intersection .   We are all home safe and sound.

He's just north of Tucson.  So yeah he got it good.
Very hot air down below rises quickly up into moist cool air a creates a thunderstorm that can be very violent  
But the mountains around here mean a tornado doesn't happen. Our T storms live short but fast lives.
But super cells just don't happen much. Winds from the desert to the west just dry those suckers right up.

Hope that mesquite makes it.  They are tough as hell I'm guessing, or they couldn't grow in your climate.  So hopefully it'll heal.  Won't be pretty or fast, but trees can heal some amazing wounds.

Microburst are powerful,  wiki says up to 170mph, that is the extreme but we have them 100-120mph commonly.  It's basically hurricane winds straight down at the ground.  My neighbors full size propane BBQ ended up in my yard on time.   We have no idea how it was possible because it's heavy and I have walls,  but I helped him moving back to his house for him.  It was damaged for sure.


Cool pic I found of it.

Cool pic I found of it.

I know the pic is horrible. But the tree are sideways.

It's passed now but we got damage in the neighborhood.  Took the limb off this 25 year old mesquite tree.   I hope it survives.

You can see the scar where the limb came off up high.

As fast as it came it has moved on,  although we have another one forming up right over the city moving our way.

Double rainbow before the next cell.... Lol

Unfortunately the major arterial road to our house is now closed with all the washes running and overflowing.   Police are at each intersection .   We are all home safe and sound.



From this angle, it looks like that cactus is giving the clouds the finger.  

When you say serious winds in a monsoon, what is the windspeed.

Hope that mesquite makes it.  They are tough as hell I'm guessing, or they couldn't grow in your climate.  So hopefully it'll heal.  Won't be pretty or fast, but trees can heal some amazing wounds.
