Subj : Re: Insurance To : George Pope From : Daryl Stout Date : Mon Nov 29 2021 16:27:00 George, GP> I think they tend to live indoors & have a large remote, property to go GP> out nude when the wearther permits. In Florida, of course, that's GP> pretty much year-round -- in Canada, it's 1-3 days/year in some places. GP> . . In parts of the world, especially Europe, they're blase' about nudity. Just like the medical professionals, it means nothing to them. But, I heard of one nudist colony who had a sign that noted "Clothed For The Winter". GP> We had a nude beach here in Vancouver I visiited a few times as a teen GP> -- it's gone now, out of flagging interest, & police(in uniform) GP> presence (cracking down on drugs(before cannabis was federally GP> legalised), fires, selling) There was a postcard from Miami Beach many years ago, showing the nude back sides of a young boy and girl. In front of them is a police officer, next to a sign noting "Propert Attire Must Be Worn On The Beach". The boy and girl (naked as jaybirds, the same from the back, except for the length of their hair) are pleading with the police officer not to write them a ticket. In much of the art world then and now, many paintings, statues, and now videos, are done with what they consider "artistic nudity". I set up a bulletin on the BBS, with the differences between nudity and pornography (the sex act outside of the marriage relationship between a man and a woman). It also dealt with things like breast feeding, personal hygiene, and other topics. Years ago, people would talk about their bowel and bladder habits, and not say a word about sex. Now, it's the other way around. GP> You'd think, but Vancouver airport had a tornado recently! I'd never GP> thought it was possible, as we are the opposite of the terrain & GP> Latitude they seem to prefer. . . There were at least 3 tornadoes in Connecticut recently. Except for Antarctica, every continent has seen tornadoes. Tornado Alley and Dixie Alley in the USA get the most of them. I'm concerned that with La Nina in place, if we get cold, snow, and ice in December (the first day of Meteorological Winter is December 1)...that could lead to an early and extended tornado season in 2022. GP> I'd probably describe it as an especially large dust devil, not a GP> tornado. . . :) The dust devils usually form on hot, dry days...but if you get caught in one, it's like being sandblasted...never mind all the prickly sandspurs being tossed about. GP> But I'm no meteorologist, I'm just a wordsmith. I'm not a meteorologist, but an amateur weather enthusiast. However, I know enough to be dangerous...and I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. GP> I'm starting to write a book about a tornado disaster GP> It's just a draft at the moment. Never mind the game Twister. GP> What did the windmill say to the tornado? GP> "Honestly, I'm a big fan!" The tornado doesn't have to stop for red lights...it'll take them and anything in its way, OUT. GP> Q: What do you say if a tornado blows off 25% of your roof? GP> A: Oof Not the way to get a sun roof. GP> Did you hear about the boarding house that was hit by a tornado? GP> Roomers were flying. Some have been picked up and tossed by tornadoes, and have been seriously injured or killed, while others get off with a few scratches. GP> I am trying to get tornado insurance for my campsite, but the companies GP> keep denying my application. GP> They told me, “If your tent gets blown away, you won’t be covered.” So, what else is nude?? GP> Did you hear about the tornado in southern USA that was swallowing GP> everything in its path? GP> It was called the VoreTex-Us. They probably thought that of the one on May 3, 1999 that was measured with 318 mph winds in the Oklahoma City area, with the Doppler On Wheels. I saw a tagline that noted "Oklahoma: Our Tornadoes Go To F-6". GP> Did you guys hear about the tornado that hit a cheese shop recently? GP> Da brie was everywhere You know you've been a storm chaser too much, when you look for cows with tornadoes (you've also watched Twister too much). GP> My wife made a tornado for dinner. GP> She was cooking up a storm. It probably blew your hunger away. Daryl ....
