Tornadoes, Dixie Chicks & Green Jackets
Well, this weekend was certainly eventful...
On early Saturday morning we woke up when the windows sounded like they were going to break in. We turned on the television to find a Tornado Warning for Cobb & Fulton Counties. Fortunately Fulton is very large (70 miles across??) and we were not in the path of the tornadoes & did not have to seek shelter. Alpharetta & Marietta (the "etta's") did suffer some damage w/F-0 & F-1 tornadoes. The suburbs of Nashville really took it too...a bad weather weekend all around for Tennessee (P.S. I did not win the weather contest....argh).
Second, the new Dixie Chicks song "Not Ready to Make Nice" is growing on me. I didn't like it @ first, but the more I hear it the more I like it. I was always a Dixie Chicks fan until 2003 when they made their unfortunate comments about W. Everyone always says, "There's nothing illegal about that". I know that, but being illegal & being right are 2 different things. It was the wrong time & wrong place considering we were about to go to war. I've always wondered what the sisters, Martie & Emily, really thought about this whole thing. In any event, they are the hotter ones. We'll see what happens!
Good ole Phil Mickelson won the Masters. How can anyone not like him? As usual the television shots, especially in hi-def, were beautiful, even if Saturday was almost a total rain-out. The Masters has got to rank up there w/the frattiest sporting events...up there w/an Ole Miss game.
P.S. Don' t you hate those people that are dead wrong about something but refuse to back down & instead then just sound ignorant? Argh.
