Can I be in charge of picture editing/modifications?

Looks like you failed that interview using an animated jpg that doesn't work here!   You can keep an eye on Don Quixote and see what he is doing.

--- Quote ---Should be no ice storms this weekend.  Perhaps I'll take my test kit and test the water in the hotel spa  ;D

I just might take my laptop and log into work a couple of times, maybe they won't charge me for the day off.

Ok, no ice storms, but I didn't think about tornados. We didn't see one, but I was looking for it.  At Indianapolis, I noticed it was hot and humid and strong winds out of the south.   Having lived in the midwest I've come to know thunderstorm weather. I commented we may be in for a bad one somewhere on the road. Well, about an hour NW of Indy on 65, the sky ahead looked black as midnight.  We drove into the a huge storm. I was watching the western skies as the wind picked up.  Within a minute the rain was blowing so hard across the road that I couldn't see the tail lights of the car 10 ft in front of me.  We got over to the side of the road at a rest area, but it was full out to the highway.

We just barely got off the road when a bassboat blew off the back of its trailer.  Shortly after a semi pulling two trailers blew over and off the road. This was followed by another trailer and a passing EXIT 1 mile sign.  It only lasted 5 minutes but we saw lots of wind damage.,  I'd estimate at its peak the winds were 60-80mph with a driving rain.  I'm pretty sure it was straight line winds and not a tornado.  I'm off to check the weather channels site

I guess I have lived in Oklahoma too long!  Glad you guys are ok!  We had a couple touch down last night in the state, thank goodness they were far enough away from me.
