I'm wet, lost some shingles and got leaks in the kitchen and the house still smells like cat whizz and needs a good cleanin'. Storm door got sprained and needs fixed, Other than that fine here.

Trees are shredded, power was out last night and last I heard there are 14 dead in this area including 1 death down our street.
No damage to our house or persons.
Schools are closed and only about half the employees showed up for work today.

JR Lawson called, they are OK. Concerned about my daughters. Friends in Clarksville say the area was hit pretty bad. So if you are listening girls let somebody who we are both talking to know.

I haven't heard anything about Clarkesville. Sorry.
I drove over to the other side of the river where the tornado hit. About 1/4 mile from here. There's nothing left over there but cows and debris. Trees, houses, barns and even dog houses are destroyed.

Nieghbors mobile home was destroyed and they found his body in a tree a half mile from his house. A 2000lb bull was also found in a tree. 8 confirmed dead so far in this local area which was the worst hit in Tn.. We were allowed down the road today. 3/4 mile wide area for 20 miles is just gone. It wiped out Camp Creek, Cassi creek and Horse creek but left us here at Clarks creek untouched. God protects idiots I guess.

Not any more! After being accused by the farmers nieghbor of stealing my own ax and of looting because I was picking up debris and putting it in my truck to take to the FEMA dump and then being questioned by the game wardens and police I have learned my lesson and those people can deal with it on their own.

But, think of it this way; One neighbor was looking out for another. Good man to have on your side when the need comes about.

Not that guy.I had to use my ax to break up some debris to fit in my truck. After loading the debris I went back and retrieved my ax and put it back in my truck. The nieghbor accused me of taking his ax. That led to the police becoming involved. Do you know how difficult it is to prove something you have had for years actualy belongs to you? I do now!
I parked my truck that morning and he was loading it up with junk from his place then he had the nerve to question my daughter and then call the cops. I'd pick debris from the farm and the old man(neighbor) would pull it it saying he could use it. In truth, he was the looter. Over 2 days I watched as people tried to help him but he would complain and yell and they would leave to help someone else. The police told me in a couple of days FEMA will start with clean-up and he will loose any options to complain as they will clear his property if he likes it or not.
I quit before I get blamed for causing the tornadoes!

Rotten no good SOB! He'll get his in the end. Couple tricks I've pulled: Once when confronted by a liar charging me with theft and B&E who had hired witnesses I told the judge we could all try out the new polygraph in the brand new crime lab. They dropped charges. Then once I was accused of threatening with a loaded shot gun I asked the judge to fingerprint the end of the shotgun shells to see who loaded the gun; again, charges were quickly dropped. Fingerprints on the axe would have done the job for you and your neighbor whould have shut up his mouth if he knew it wasn't his.
