The Hive is ALIVE! It's not dead yet!

Wow... a tornado just hit within 2 miles from where my gf's lives in Lake Perris California. It ended up crossing over the freeway, knocked over a truck and then took out this one train that seems to be perpetually stopped on the rail way that is parallel to the freeway and traveled into an area that was pretty much uninhabited.

I'm glad she's ok.

Storms went through my sister's neighborhood and dropped a tree on the neighbor's car. There was a tornado in the area but I don't think it was what did the damage.

We had some tornados here yesterday, and by here I mean in the same state.
What I got was a small amount of rain, I had to walk quickly to the bus, and could not read while I waited. This was a major personal tragedy and really should have made the local news, but they were to busy talking about a missing dog.

I saw the tornado on the news. Your story was the human interest or fluff piece at the end. There will be a fund raiser to help you through the trauma.

I hate it when they tease a news story then decide not to air the story because anchor woman A's weekly 5-10 minute long filler segment about semi-retarded orphan children who are trying to get adopted is much more important then a story about some guy that was able to cure himself of cancer without chemotherapy.

Thats cool, they teased the tornado/dog story twice during primetime and I was afraid I was going to get my fluff bumped. They must have not actually had film of the dog, video of animals always bumps other stories, its even better than orphans.

Is your adoption bit called Wednesday's Child also? That's what they call it here. She spends time with a foster kid that wants to be adopted.

Yeah I think that's the one. Yeah, I know it's a good cause, but some days I find myself questioning what important news story is being dropped for that 5 - 10 minutes worth of filler.

Today the hostess at the restaurant and I went all myth busters and confirmed our long held suspicion that guys like tipping chicks more then they do other guys as a result of this one guy making two similar orders: 1 was for a pounds of asada and carnitas the other for 2 pounts of chicken. I ended up taking one of the orders and the hostess took the other (with a flirtatious smile). Guess which one of us ended up with a tip.


Next week we're going to challenge the myth that grenadine + coke tastes like cherry coke.

As a guy who has ordered food, I could have told you already that it's true.

Really, the only time a hot waitress DOESN'T get a good tip from me is when anyone else would get a bad tip from [if they do something just plain bad]. However, when tipping good, I think I tend to be a lot more willing to round up on tips if they're cute, though rarely has it actually led me to giving like a LOT more. Like if the total comes to 11.36 after a 15% tip. I NEVER give such a number. I round up to 11.50. Cute girls, however, may have me round that up to 12.00.
