The tornadoes this weekend.

As a blogger I tried to get some cool storm video by pointing my shitty camera out the window.  I'm here in the Chicago area and of course we had warnings all day.  Being underneath Lake Michigan I seem to always have a buffer.  At first I was pissed that I didn't get any cool footage as the storms always seem to go above or below me.  After watching this I realize, I'm lucky not to be in the open plains.

My heart and prayers go out to all of those who suffered from this weekends violent tornadoes.

The least I can do is give you a small motivational video.  I would love to hear stories from anyone who follows me that went through this tragic ordeal.

    Yeah, it's insane how much damage those things can do. Another reason to not want to live in Tornado alley.

    These tornados seem to be endless, and they're so destructive. I wish them the best in recovering from that tragedy.

    Not to many tornados in my area, just thunderstorms. A couple weeks back, when North Carolina and Virginia were hit hard, I knew a few people affected. It kinda sucks.

    It is so sad, I'm helping in every possible way, thank you for sharing, and that song, Drive, goes very well with the situation, makes you want to actually fight back the problem.
