Sometimes Mother Nature gets it right...

Last night, Liberty experienced a microburst, a weather phenomenon defined as

A instance of severe weather characterized by extremely strong and many times damaging winds that newspeople never have the cajones to call a tornado

This microburst (wink wink, nudge nudge) happened at the intersection of 291 and 152 hiways, three blocks from my office and took out a dozen telephone poles.

Which means, in short, that my office is without electical power so I'm working from home this morning. A much needed break, let me tell you! My basement is chilly and dark, but it's also home. The dual monitor setup is definitely a plus.

I could get used to this.

When I was doing a show in liberty, there was a microburst. We watched it sweep through. Only took out electric lines and part of the hospital. Thank goodness it wasn't a real tornado. *wink*
