Man, we had another couple of storms come through again last night. Jane and I went to Outback for supper and it looked stormy off to the north, but we didn't think anything would be coming our way. On our way home though we started seeing debri in the road and limbs down, and even a couple of whole trees on their side. The house just to the west of us had about a 16" trunked tree just snapped off about a foot above the ground. Just south of us there was a tall pine that was completely uprooted. We couldn't get the garage door opener to work, as we had no electricity, and wondered how poor Bogey was doing, since he freaks out pretty bad just from rain and thunder. This isn't a pic of our dog, but that's what he was doing. Jane found him laying in our bed - which he NEVER gets in if we're not in it - and it was completely SOAKED from drool. We slept in the spare bed. Power came back on a little after nine. I was worried the church basement might have flooded since the sump usually runs constantly in weather like this, but it was okay. We also watched 'Black Snake Moan.' The girl at the counter said "This is a weird movie"... and she was right about that.

Y'all end up seeing some really off-beat movies.
You know, if you sit down in the theatre next to Tom Servo and Crow, that's a hint and a half.
Hey... that sounds like a good premise for a new reality show: YOU get to be on mystery science theater and come up with comments yourself!!
Back in the 80's they had a show on late where they would show old movies without the sound and the hosts would fill in the voices, it was called "The CANNED Film Festival." Funny stuff.
