Then squint and point at the reporter and act nonplussed when nothing happens. Insist that it was working 5 minutes ago and try again. Finally continue with the interview, but after every 3rd sentence try to electrocute the reporter again while displaying signs of intense struggle, eventually passing out from exhaustion. |

thi
we got it bad here in maple...eeek..i can't believe that i could be walking outside my house and get caught in a funnel cloud...this is shit i've never had to worry about before!!
I was driving the route 45 here in Mississauga before during and after the storm.
It was nice and sunny in the south and the sky to the Northwest was dark, then really dark. Then in literally about three minutes it started pissing. I opened the doors to the bus to let a person on and got completely soaked myself. Tree branches falling left right and centre. There was lightning everywhere. I threw the fourways on and made an emergency call to the control as Winston Churchill was flooding very quickly, especially since they are doing all kinds of construction on there. Pilons and street signs all over the road. There was traffic signals literally hanging off of the posts.
Then eventually I got to the intersection of W. Churchill and Eglinton. There was a very bright flash of light immeadiatly follow by a clap and huge boom. Never heard anything like it. All the lights in the area went off and the traffic signals ( the ones not hanging by the wires) started flashing red. People very quickly forget to treat the intersection like a 4-way stop.
I kept driving. I then witnessed quite possibly the most humourous and pathetic sight of the evening. Some poor bastard had his windshield fog up, so he was driving with his head sticking out the driver side window. It was obvious he still couldnt see cause of the ridiculous amount of rain, and drove clean off the road and through a fence into someones back yard.
I unfortunatly dont bring my camera to work, but it really was something I have NEVER seen before.
WOW all that sounds terrifying and chaotic... Good thing I'm in Poland and missed it all!!

Property Policies vary a lot but typically all policies will cover what are called Specified Perils.
