Three Musketeers

sunlight night as I was staggering down the street with fall dripping from the gashes on my head Oh yeah by the way it was Halloween and I was dressed up as a zombie, anyway we were Like the 3 musketeers me as a zombie, Each as a mummy, and Cattail as a witch all strolling down the streets with pockets rich of sweets and I mean full as we turned the corner to go down Casey avenue there It was the lonely ho routine at the end of the street with the creaky supply here no one went, but you know Each lacking to get sweets from every house so we went, the gate creaked as it open up the dead rose trees in the front garden and the odd seat scattering across the path sent a shiver up my spine as we approached the door bats flew around our heads the thick senile wooden door creaked open I knew this wasnt a good judgement an old strange man staggered towards the door we could slightly see his fount in the moonlight he had a pointy nose thick hoary curly hair red eyes, a pale mouth and a face as w defecatee as snowMay 3, 1999 was a day l, and many an(prenominal) other okeyn, will never forget. It was Friday afterwardnoon and I had just got dour a conference call around 430. I was pall after a long week so I flipped on the TV to take my mind bump off of work. Well, there were live news program reports warning there was a tornado around 70-80 miles south-southwest of Oklahoma City. I had no idea this tornado was going to stay on the ground for hours and create the strongest winds ever recorded Ever. It started out small, like an Fl, UT as it got closer to Oklahoma City the thing this monster off storm got bigger and bigger and bigger Ill never forget reflexion this whole thing live as it happened from the eyes of the local TV helicopters.The most chilling moments that genuinely haunt me were to see destroyed neighborhoods moments after the tornado tore through them In the Bridge Creek/Moore suburbs that were hit the hardest. People were coming out o f an elementary school, where they had taken shelter, and they were just paseo around in a daze among the total destruction of what use to be heir homes. Most homes were gone and destroyed beyond recognition. I knew if the helicopters stayed on the scene long enough we would see people who had died. It was really uncomfortable to see this horror unfold as it happened while academic term in the comforts of my family room. Oh, the smell of natural gas I evict still remember how strong it was.It hung in the air for the longest clock after the monster destroyed most everything in its path. We were 15 miles away, too. In all, there were over 60 rondos that day that ripped through Oklahoma and Kansas.
