Even without a true tornado, you can get microbursts of very high winds embedded.

Yep, I check in on Lady Min’s bird, plant, and recipe blogging. That’s one of the reasons for the CommentLuv plug-in.

OT: Was offline pretty much all day. Had a severe thunderstorm last night and early today. Lost the phone and internet. A couple big trees on the nature strip got shredded nearby in this street, and council was out with the cherry picker, chainsaws and the big tree shredder. Didn’t take long to clean up. 🙂 On the plus side, the rain is cooling! And I really like the rain (and I don’t mind thunderstorms either, unless they disrupt my Internet!) 😆

Thanks for noticing. You must be one of those people with a “real life”.

Not to be critical, Moi, but it has been a while since we’ve seen a certain marmalade kitty or a fluffy white dog.

BTW I try not to stop by JUST for cat blogging. I look at my feeds first, lol. And they are always the first thing that catch my eye!

He’s right, and I have worked with people who did nothing but agree. They were worthless. The world’s best writers all rely on editors and proofreaders to catch the mistakes they know are in their work. If you have to defend your opinion, you can hone it until you are certain, or give it up, because on second thought, it won’t work.

I used to hate waiting until my students were comfortable enough to ask questions, because after you have taught something several times, there is a tendency to go on autopilot. If you really care about what you are teaching you want people to understand it, and that requires their asking questions. That was the main reason I shifted to the evening classes that were generally attended by older students – they don’t have a problem challenging things.
