Basement?
Eh?
I never lived in a basement, I did use to live with my parents, oh about a year ago.

I live in the middle of the city now - well the closest thing to a city where I am around.

There was a torando  - not quite where I live tho\'. I haven\'t heard numbers about how much damage it done.

Thanks for askin\' tho clips!

True that. They never do any damage really. There was one in the town next to me where it did a lot of damage (mostly just trees and missing shingles) a couple years ago. I think they called it like a mecca burst or some shit like that. I don\'t know if it actually was a tornado or not. There was a damage path so I think it was.

Most damage I have seen from one was last year when one hit next to my parents place. Knocked the roof off a bar, knocked two tree\'s ontop of my parents cars and took some of the roof off the house. Nothing real bad tho\'.

One of my roommates is from Evansville.  Her family is ok but two of her friends are in the hospital.

Ah, I love NJ. We just have to worry about snow, ice and the occasional tropical storm, all of which are fun to drive in :D
