“Through our experience with the tornadoes, we became a model of how a community should reach out to its own,”
Charles Farmer
“But we're comparing tornado reports, which are probably inflated, with confirmed tornadoes for previous years.”
Daniel McCarthy
“In some places it's known as a tornado. In others, a cyclone. And in still others, the Idiot's Merry-go-round. But around here they'll always be known as screw-boys.”
Jack Handy
“I have little compassion for people in trailer parks who refuse tomove after getting tornado warnings. How hard is it for them torelocate? Their house have wheels.”
Carlos Mencia
“HURRICANE, n. An atmospheric demonstration once very common but now generally abandoned for the tornado and cyclone. The hurricane is still in popular use in the West Indies and is preferred by certain old-fashioned sea-captains. It is also used in the construction of the upper decks of steamboats, but generally speaking, the hurricane's usefulness has outlasted it.”
Ambrose Bierce
“I bet it's hard to break farmers of the old superstitions like "Tornado got Old Yeller, stay in the cellar."”
