Tornado


STIFFPAWED

Recommended Posts

and yet...after it blows your house and everything away, you'll insist on rebuilding in exactly the same spot!

and I get bugged about putting up with a little cold!

What if your house got hit by a tornado and you moved and re-built in a different spot and got hit again? What would you say then Mr. Ilivewhereitstoocold?

I don't know Mr. Boobman...I choose to live somewhere that mother nature loves us all and doesn't choose to blow us all away or flood the crap out of us!

Come on, you got to have SOME kind of natural disaster in that region??? No floods? Really?

Here we got hurricanes, the occasional torndado, floods in places and lots of lightening in the spring and summer.

Oh and the threat of a mega-tsunami from those islands off the coast of Africa or a comet. :D

before I lived here, this area had a freak tornado that killed something like 13 people and they still talk about it all the time because it was such a freak storm. If there is lots and lots of snow in the winter and we get a quick spring with lots of rain, the mountain melt might cause some local rivers to splash their banks...with localized flooding...but truly, this is a natural disaster free zone!

of course now that I mentioned it....

What about the great polar bear stampede of 1994 that left hundreds dead and thousands homeless? Is that considered a natural disaster?

no, that was man made...they sold extra seal clubbing permits that year and it really pissed off the polar bears. In the end, it wasn't all that bad, it cleared out alot of slums and there was a huge bargain on fir coats.

Probability of my house being torn down by a tornado.....0.005%

Probability of Hawk's house being under 20 feet of snow for 80% of the year....99.8983%

    • Ok so when a team has a plus sign (panthers +7.5) that means Vegas is giving you 7.5 points so  the Panthers can win or even LOSE by 7 points and you would still win your bet, when a team has a minus sign (broncos -7.5) that means you need more that amount to win the bet. The second column is the over / under for total points in the game. That's self explanatory The final column is the money line so just who you think wins the game.  Now the odds. It's oddly reported but essentially that is the odds of your bet. Lower numbers equals less return on your money. It's easiest to think of it has 100 dollars. With -110 odds that nets you essentially 90 dollars (91 to be exact) plus your original money back. So if the Broncos win by 8 and you put 100 dollars in you would net 91 dollars but have 191 in your account. For positive odds like the Panthers money line you can essentially take the first two numbers and multiply it by your betting amount.  So 100% on the Panthers money line would net you 2.8 X 100 280 dollars with the original bet back so 380 would be in your account. Obviously there with really, really low odds like -1000 you are not going to profit that much money unless you bet a HUGE chunk of money.  I'm not advising you to gamble but play around with it in the app and it will tell you how much you are going to make if you hit your bet Also if you are starting to gamble DO NOT bet large amounts. Start with like 1 and 5 dollars. Good gamblers are principled and only bet units of money. For some a unit is 1 dollar for some it's 1000 dollars. Depending on your disposable income but eventually Vegas wins and the sport is too random to bet 100% correct. Excellent gamblers have like a 60% success rate or even less.  Gambling help? Call 1-800...
    • At some point we have to keep proven commodities on the roster, I’ve heard all the rational of releasing cam, trading cmc, trading burns, trading DJ Moore etc  as bad as this roster is we need retain anyone that would fetch a 2nd or 3rd in a trade, can’t trust that we can draft adequate replacements 
    • Fields could be interesting to bring in next off season, but there are some other interesting FA QBs as well. They may not be high profiled Qbs, but interesting enough to take a look.
