You know how you get a crazy idea sometimes and it makes you laugh, but other people are left scratching their heads? My eggs are a prime example.

HMMM…THIS GIVES ME AN IDEA…
HA!
I WAS ALL SET TO BEGIN WRITING MY POST, WHEN I LOOKED AT THE IMAGE AGAIN AND REALIZED THAT THE OWNER HAD REMOVED THE SEAT! THAT’S TO PREVENT IT FROM BEING STOLEN.
SMART OWNER…THAT BIKE IS JUST TOO MUCH FUN FOR IT’S OWN GOOD.
I THINK I SHALL START COLLECTING OLD BIKES..(THIS ONE IS NOT OLD) AND START PAINTING THEM ALL KINDS OF WEIRD, WILD COLORS…I THINK THAT I WILL DISPLAY THEM IN THE FRONT YARD AND PUT LIGHTS ON THEM FOR NIGHT TIME..LIKE WE DO AT CHRISTMAS TIME WITH OUR TREES AND SHRUBS AND HOUSES.
HUBBY WILL LOVE THIS IDEA! HE MAY HAVE TO GO HAVE A DRINK OR TWO WHEN HE SEES MY FABULOUS YARD DISPLAY BUT I LIKE TO KEEP HIS LIFE EXCITING…IT’S ONE OF THE THINGS I’M GOOD AT.
TORNADO HELMETS CAN BE A FASHION STATEMENT…
Now this is actually a bike helmet…but any helmet in a tornado warning is a tornado helmet to me.As you can see, I like a little “pizzazz” going on…especially when there’s a little electricity in the air.
I gave two of my kids helmets like this for their birthday, last year?..the year before?…..My other child lives in Montana and doesn’t experience a whole lot of tornado activity. When they were much younger, I’d have them put their bike helmets on and we’d all troop down into the basement when a tornado warning was issued…we had a large glass window at the end of the only room that comprised the basement..so I was worried about that for sure. Now, the weather channel has stolen my idea and is advising people to use their bike helmets, motorcycle helmets, whatever they can, to protect their heads.
(Do you remember the time a bunch of people were in a large store and a tornado was coming…the store manager had all the customers gather together in the toilet paper section and covered them all up with it…as long as that toilet paper didn’t get sucked up into the vortex, they should have been pretty protected….I personally would rather wear a helmet.)
If you live in tornado alley, or where I do, which I call “mini-tornado alley”…they also recommend that you keep your helmet in your car…wherever you spend the majority of your day…have it close by…maybe schools should have a special hanger underneath each school desk where a one size fits all helmet could be kept….I’m not kidding, actually..just during tornado season.
So people here’s the plan…you all go out and get yourself a helmet and then send me a picture of the style you picked…glue feathers to it, tape paper wings to it…stick a fake pony-tail on it…just get those noggins protected…especially the kiddies!
Yep, I’m silly…but you already knew that!
(Please know that I take a light-hearted tone with this post…but this is a very, very serious matter and I pray that all of those caught in this awful ongoing situation will be safe, along with all of their loved ones, two and four-footed alike.)
They are warning again…if you have a helmet…PUT IT ON…also…make sure that you have shoes on…there will be a lot of debris…you will need to protect your feet.
