I like to chase storms and did so last weekend.

I am a volunteer storm spotter

I like music and reading.

I enjoy argueing politics

I like to eat

A hobby was once trying to kill myself. I quit because I wasn't very good at it.

I love political talk shows

I don't have road rage

My nearest neighbor lives two miles away

I own a Ford Taurus and also a Festiva

I like Freddie Cruger and the Twilight Zone

I like to travel and have been in most of the lower 48 states and bordering Canadian provencies. My ambition is to visit Alaska

I was in a television commercial twice.

I have a farm and I plant two acres of sweetcorn each year to get enough after the deer and raccoons have their fill.

I have one sibling. We still speak and hang out together.

Two of my favorite movies are Airplane and National Lampoon's Vacation.

I vote in all elections, even for the school board.

I graduated from college with a history degree and taught school for two years.

I was born an interesex with parts of both genders, was raised as a boy and took male hormones until nearly age thirty when they made me sick. A Chromosome test came out xx, so I had some minor surgery, and now, I am a normal woman. No wonder I tried to kill myself. I hope this doesn't offend anyone, but it is a big part of who I am.

I own twenty pairs of shoes.

My boyfriend buys me flowers.

Thankyou TanyaGrave I'm glad I wasn't good at killing myself too...now.

Yes, skittles, I do have an interesting life. My poor mother never expected such an unusual kid. I took her storm chasing once and when a gust of wind blew us into the passing lane and a large tree limb crossed over the hood, she probably regretted ever having me.

Teaching me how to sew a jumper was another frustrating experience for her. She probably wished the tree limb had hit us before we finished. Except for that, we get along fine. We go shopping and eat out together.

I have four kittens and a cat on my back porch now to protect them from the dog who wants to eat them. I keep the stray dog because she eats racoons.

I like rock climbing too, Liv 28, but cliff diving? I'd be terrified. How far do you dive? When you say spelunking, do you mean exploring caves not seen before? I wouldn't mind doing that.

Yes, LIv28, staring into a tornado is like looking into the face of doom. I am just an amateur without the fancy equipment and need to drive a thousand miles a weekend as the professionals do. However, I once followed a thunderstorm along the interstate for three-hundred miles, just to watch it die.

One time, I was in a town with tornadoes on two sides. I stopped in the park to get my bearings and to decide which way to go. The sky was as dark as late dusk at 2PM, and the town sirens were on. The radio said the closest tornado was about five miles south and moving northeast. I decided to drive east of town and meet the tornado. Then, golf ball sized hail started falling, and I decided a dented car was not worth seeing a tornado that day. I left.

Meanwhile a highschool graduation party broke up as the sky darkened. The folks knew a mobile home is a bad place to be in a storm, so they all drove toward a party goer's home. The tornado caught them before they made it, and as advised in these situations, they took to the road ditch and hugged the ground. Unfortunately, a combine bean head dropped on top of several and killed them. It happened near where I would have been.

Many storm chasers are research meterologists and others do it for the thrill. Still others earn money by charging people for storm chasing packages. One time New Zealand storm chasers trumped the tornado as the main story. People were amazed someone would travel all that distance just to see tornadoes.

They are dangerous and unperdictable. One can spin up and expand almost instantly. Or a tornado may weaken and die as another forms close to the observer. Straight line winds can be almost as dangerous as a tornado. The wind turns sticks, tin, and boards into missles which can penetrate walls.

Oklahoma had a serious outbreak around 1999, and it was almost like the movie Twister. One was so powerful, it was unlikely anyone under it could have survived, even in a protected basement.

In South Dakota, a tornado destroyed an entire town. When rescuers arrived, they found a ninety year old man sitting at his kitchen table, still eating his breakfast when his house was reduced to a pile of lumber.

Close, but not too close is a good way to look at it.

I have been in caves but as a tourist. One time, the guide took us into an unfinished part of a cave where we walked along a little path and stared into blackness. Have you ever explored a cave and found signs of earlier human occupation or visitation?

Jumping 70 feet from a cliff sounds frightening. You must have a lot of courage. I can imagion it would hurt if you hit the water wrong. Do you use a rope, to be dragged out, or are you on your own? As for sky diving, Bush the elder did it to celebrate his eightieth birthday, and people even older than he have done it.
