Can I hitch-hike with the DV stormchasing crew? Sounds fun! Though...so long as we aren't using one of our cars, we might as well give the tank-car-into-tornado idea a try.

[Oneironaut Zero]

I grew up in Texas, so I've been fascinated with storms since I was little. It's always been a dream of mine to ride with chasers at least once in my life. I know what their all about and damnit I'M DOWN!!!!! And pssssssh @ Peregrinus, not everyone can devote the time of a dedicated chaser. People chase over spans of thousands of miles a season hoping to catch a storm and never do. That deserves it's respect, no doubt, but just because you aren't willing (or probably just can't) sacrifice that kind of time and endurance for the job doesn't mean what you do isn't significant or exciting enough. It's engaging the storm that I think is most noteworthy. And I remember seeing that guy on the news. People may say he's nuts. I think he deserves a medal.

Originally posted by Peregrinus I don't think I deserve the respect, though. *I'm not one of those really dedicated chasers who'll drive 200 miles a day in hopes of catching a single perfect supercell or tornado TOO LATE, I'm already picturing you like Helun Hunt in Twister, running around and smashing up your car in some F-5 twister anyway, lol at the tank dude

Originally posted by Peregrinus Much of the plains are still in a drought, so I don't know how good the rest of the season's going to be, but in the next couple of years, if we break the no-rain cycle, does this mean that Ophelia, Oneironaut, and Burns would be game to join Howetzer, Tornado Joe and me on a DV storm chase meet-up?! *You know you want to! *We could rent a van or SUV (naturally not telling the rental car place what we intend to do with said vehicle) and drive it across the corn and wheat fields with the windows down and the music blastin' * Hell yeah! I'm in!

[Tornado Joe]

... does this mean that Ophelia, Oneironaut, and Burns would be game to join Howetzer, Tornado Joe and me on a DV storm chase meet-up?! You know you want to! [/b] Sweet! The team is assembled then - I'll drop out the seats in my Element to make more room and swing by and pick everyone up! (be ready at your front door with beer and umbrella in hand)

HAHAhahaAhaHAhaAHahA!!!

[Gwendolyn]

Next time, i want to be in on that crazy storm action!

[wombing]

awesome!! almost as awesome as stormchasing...

[InTheMoment]

LOL @ Joe & Licky Lisa! ~

[Peregrinus]

Joe, that's fucking awesome! Now we SO have to go! There's a radio operator here in town with the most tripped-out personal storm chasing vehicle I've ever seen (well, aside from the tornado tank). And the guy's a tornado magnet. I'm not kidding. I saw some of his video from earlier this season - two tornadoes in the same frame, and it wasn't multiple vortex either. It seems like every storm he follows tornadoes. So maybe I can recruit him (or we can just tail him... you know, with our lights off, so he won't know we're doing it ) Ok, now I'm psyched. We've got to plan this early for next spring or something. So far, we've got: Gwen Tsen Ophelia Oneironaut Burns Tornado Joe Howetzer me Any other takers? We'll either have one packed Honda Element, or a regular storm-chasing caravan!

[Courtney Mae]

Heh, count Courtney in!

[Dangeruss]

err well if your storm chasing ever brings you around here (it won't) then I'd love to get in on that!

[Distant Clone]

I think someone should find the picture of Nina laying sideways and strap her to the front or hood of the car.

[Ynot]

^^^ or under the back wheel

[Amethyst Star]

TJ, I wouldn't be surprised if someone used that for their background. That's awesome. And if tornadoes occurred in Oregon or Montana, I'd join the team. As it is, though...
