Not Saying Its Windy In Kansas But

I’m not saying it’s windy in Kansas but…. I saw a bald eagle get pushed by on his gut. My house has landed upside down in an ant hill. When a ham sandwich flew by I grabbed a pickle, dill. I am not saying it’s windy in Kansas but…. There go a catalog and a salesman for Finger Hut. Cows and pigs are swirling rapidly overhead. When they start landing, we could all end up dead. I’m not saying it’s windy in Kansas but… The barn is upside down, her doors in a tight jut. Six squirrels just blew out of their leafy elm tree. Who are upside down and backwards? That’s you and me! I’m not saying it’s windy in Kansas but… There goes a Snoopy doghouse complete with a mutt. My school house just blew by without any glass. Will this make my principal fall on his ass? I’m not saying it’s windy in Kansas but… My legs are battered, bruised, and solidly cut. Tornado winds picked up that extremely dirty pig sty. And an armored truck full of guards just went flying by.

I guess I'd better hang onto my hat when I visit Kansas, eh? You've more than convinced me, Caren. :) gw

It is so WINDY here! It makes Chicago look like it never had a breeze.

This is such a good description of a terrible storm in the Midwest. It comes across as funny, but it is terribly serious to those who experience it. A grim reminder well-penned.

It is unbelievable how many limbs are down.
