Hail the Swimmin' Pool!


[YouTube - Link]
A hail storm in Oklahoma, illustrated by a swimming pool. Stay with it; things really get rolling at about the one minute mark.

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.

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.

@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)

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!"

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.
