**** Official 2012 Countdown ****

[Merlin]

Not even a neighborhood leveling tornado will keep me from opening day....
nobody got hurt.... I needed a new roof anyways.
And a fence....and some windows...and paint..... sad that I lost every tree though. Can't really replace a 50 year old oak tree.

Oh well. It is what it is.

[Al-Nimer]

Glad to hear it, Merlin!  Only 3.5 days to go!

Gotta run to the big liquor store to get a selection of nice brews... Harp for dear Lady Kett for sure, and some hard cider for Angus... we'll see what else they have...

Cleaning up after the tornado.... Dad it's looking less and less like your 40 Creek will make it to the weekend.

[Hospitaller]

Merlin- Good to see no one was hurt. We know lots of folks in the D/FW area, and seeing the vids last night made us catch our breath.

[DonaCatalina]

Not to worry....I picked up an additional bottle. There will be some there at least.

Merlin, VERY glad that you and yours are safe and sound... and very sad that you suffered so much damage from the storms!  Hoping to get to see you in a bit over a week!

Save some of that cider for ME, please!!!   

[Merlin the Elder]
