Speaking for myself, I would find it hard to live in places where tornadoes or hurricanes seem to hit often. It would bother the besieges out of me.

Hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes I would like to avoid.

At least with hurricanes, you have advanced warning to get out of it's way. Tornadoes, not so much.

I remember my first earthquake scenario. It was only a 4.0 but I felt like I was jumping up and down

I was visiting my aunt in Granada Hills, California. She told me that they were still getting aftershocks from the earthquake that tore up the LA freeway. I forget the exact location of it, but my cousin lost his house as a result of that quake.

If there had to be an evacuation over here due to a hurricane, it would be a total nightmare and I can guarantee every house will be looted before the people return.

damn, that was quick. I saw it was a cat 3 this morning. Looks like it's heading for the Yucatan again too

I still remember the night vividly when a tornado passed right over the top of our house. Woke both my wife and I up instantly, and it sounded just like everyone said it would sound like - a freight train running through the living room. Fortunately, there was only minor damage to some neighbor's homes and not ours...

You know I just got thinking about it. My wife's best friend and her husband took a vacation this week to somewhere in the Caribbean.

Steve mentioned that he did take out hurricane insurance though.

Maybe they'll have a heck of a story to tell the grandkids!

Depends on where it is coming from. Watch what you wish for.

Read the thread title....

Thought this thread would be about Roody's lack of longevity.

My bad!

Carry on...
