wowzers,glad you ran for cover.
I was already indoors.

There was that big humongous storm in September 2010 that caused heavy rains,sidewalks to rip apart and trees blown off.

I think I heard about that on the national news.

Sounds terrible, London did have a tornado a few years back and it caused structural damage.


I think I did mention it on the boards when it happened.

Yes you did. I'm glad you were ok.

I never have tornados where I live, but I can remember one time when we did have a tornado watch. This was in January 2005, when we had those powerful thunderstorms, which even caused a mudslide in La Conchita, a small community some 20 miles northwest of where I live.

It's been 14 years since I last did it. I suppose I could re-teach myself.

I just know that the first time I went rollerskating, which was in '89 to a friend's birthday party, I barely knew how at all. So another friend (who happened to be there, too) taught me how, and was there in case I fell over.

Roller Skating rinks have disappeared now.

Yeah, skating isn't "in" anymore. Neither is going to the mall. I guess those things kinda peaked during the 70s and 80s.  ::)

I agree; I still see roller rinks (including one just a few miles up the road from where I live, as well as one near the university I attended); maybe they're not as popular as they used to be.

Also, now that I think about it, there is an ice rink (or maybe there once was; not sure if it went bye bye yet) near my home, but it is in a part of town that has not been doing much business lately. And when I was little, there was once an ice rink at a shopping mall (which is now obsolete), but it's no longer there. So I have never been on an ice rink.

Definitely n 2007, I cannot place the month at the moment.

I would say late 2007, but I do not wish to discuss it further. :-X

If the sword is used the right way, then one would not get poked. But as a kid at summer day camp I was often afraid that I would, which is why I often refused to partake.

Yes it is; but sometimes it can get frustrating when you can't quite get the ball into the hole and have to use multiple strokes to get it in there. Still, I would like to play again at some point.

Personally I don't care for it much, except when it's done at a low level...like on certain TV shows. For example, there were a couple of episodes of "Saved By The Bell" that involved wrestling.

That is a comedy version. It's a comedy song, so naturally it would be a comedy version. Bob & Doug's version of the 12 Days Of Christmas is a comedy song.

I know they did. Many of which was spoken-word recordings, including some having to do with Christmas, as I referenced above ("Santa Claus and his Old Lady"). I heard some of them on the radio one year on Christmas Eve.
