    Yeah, you should have seen it. Hail the size of your fist, I kid you not. Thank God I was out of town when it hit.

    Oh, HAIL no!

    I’ll stay here in California with my big earthquakes every 30 years or so.

    I’ve GOTTA know if the videographer had ever seen anything like that before.

    I wish I could go back in time and buy him a tripod. Heck, I wish I could go back in time and take some dramamine.

    That was pretty crazy. I’ve been in a couple of hail storms before, but only when the hail was nice and small.
    Can’t imagine how big some of those were and the damage it did.

    Where I live it only hails the tiny kind, and only when it’s sunny out.

    I think at 3 mins 24 he says “You godda be jerkin’ me!”. Am I right? Dude, that’s not a good expression. Even when admiring big balls. But then again, that would explain the camera work.

    Oh my Gawd…..oh sorry some one already said that.

    I get the feeling that he’s never seen anything like that before.

    @Larfin Jackarse I was going to say the same thing but now I can’t. GGG Least they could do is learn some other phrases. A lot start with Holy, Holy crap, Holy shit, Holy mackerel, Holy moly, Holy mother of God are just a few that come to mind. Oh, forgot Holy Batshit and the BIGGIE Holy F ummm you know how it goes.

    (then again Phil Rizzuto did pretty well with “Holy Cow” for ages!)

    (if not familiar the Scooter was a darned good SS for the NY Yankees, went on to become a BB announcer)

    (musta been pretty good for Ogden Nash to write an 18 line poem about http://www.baseball-almanac.com/quotes/quorizz.shtml)

    Oh my GOD, will you hold the camera still?

    Does that happen often in Oklahoma?

    Next hailstorm, please substitute “Great Caesar’s Ghost!” or “Holy Zarquon’s Singing Fish!” or “By the power of Grayskull!” or “By Grabthar’s Hammer!” every time you have the urge to say “Oh my God!” Change it up a bit.

    Also, repeat the mantra, “I’ve seen something like this before. In May 2010!”

    What enlightening dialog! What smooth camera work! Give him a Nobel prize. He’s as good as Obama1

    @Kevin Gorge

    Good for you. You made a funny by stating a fact and putting the word Obama in your sentence1

  20. heh
    May 19th, 2010 at 11:34 am

    Yeah, his camera work sucks.

    @Gauldar

    Technically, the teabagger put the word Obama1 in it. Otherwise, you hit nail on head.

    Oklahoma has tornadoes, floods, etc., but the people are better than in the eastern cities.

    I wouldve like to have seen the after effects of the hail. Since I had to look at that decorative shrub in the foreground, I kept wondering if it survived or not.
