With all the news on TV lately about the extreme weather conditions
affecting the East Coast of the US, the mud slides in the Middle East
and South America, the flood that made it's mark on Southern England,
along with the dire predictions made by such films as The Day After
Tomorrow, we shouldn't forget that Colorado has its share of devastating
weather too.


I've attached a photo illustrating the damage caused to my home from a
storm that passed through Colorado last week. It really
makes you cherish what you have, and reminds us not to take things for
granted!

Kinda funny until you remember that we have a lot of people suffering real hardships in Florida and South Alabama. Then it's just poor tase.

Between, all the people who are suffering in Florida, Alabama, Haiti, Jamaica, The Bahamas, Bengladesh, Chad, Cuba, The Dominican Republic, Grenada, Israel, Iraq, The Sudan, Somolia and Zimbabwe, you should be able to piss in everybody's cornflakes for a long, long time.


Sorry to see your mess, Offspring, hope repairs go well.

Hey Offspring, sorry to hear your place was damaged.

And for the others who got their panties in a wad, it's a JOKE.  You know, a bit of levity.  Geez, it was forwarded to me and I found it funny.

We were renting so someone else can clean up the mess. We now live in a converted garage at my mom's place until we  figure out what in the hell we are going to do or where to go.

Hey, this is a Colorado severe storm topic, Florida is passé...

Sorry about your misfortune, and wish I could help.

We saved almost everything. Just lost my computer, some clothing, wall hangings, decorations, my bonsai tree was the only living casualty. We are very fortunate compared to others in our area. I worked with FEMA for a week and saw true devastation and even those people could laugh and see the humor/irony in it all.

Offspring - Sorry to see that you guys got hit but I'm glad you're okay.  Those things can be replaced.

Some duct tape, spackle and a little touch-up paint, and you're good to go.
Ahh to be a handyman or construction contractor in FL right now.
