You do not want to be in a natural disaster, because thinking you may really die is not a good feeling, but I agree tornado chasing would be fun (and I've been in 2) http://www.f5tornadosafaris.com/

My thing is this, if you are tornado chasing, you already have a plan set up for hilarious things happening, you eliminate panic, probably the most overwhelming feeling there is, out of the equation. I agree that if you don't know that a serious tornado is about to come down, I would want no part of that.

Different processes celebrally(my $1,000 word for the year, which is probably spelled wrong)

Oh gosh I love those.





Don't you just adore sticking yourself in quicksand and see how far down you go?

i get scavs.

no one talks much about it but there is a thrill in surviving a natural disaster. even one where other's perish.

i think the key to enjoyment is not being injured and having relativly little personal property loss. the fear you felt during the event itself soon fades and you're left with what can only be called a thrill.

it's poor form to talk about it where so many other's have suffered dramatic losses but that doesn't mean it isn't there.

i'd rather not go through another big earthquake but if i make it through unscathed again, i'm pretty sure i'd look back on it as an exciting change from normal life.
