I didn't see me not one mobile home (or houseboat) in that waterspout. Sure it's real?

That's what the frieghter was probably carrying...new "pre-manufactured homes!"

mushy - I think you should win an award for that comment! Clever man.

Whoah, our dust devils are looking better all the time, even after last week. Did you get blasted in TX, too?

There's a lot of power there, to turn a ship that size like it was a top. Pretty scary - wonder what it was like aboard?

lin - I didn't see any dust devils, but I'm sure they crossed the border. I've wondered if one would pick a person up, just a little.

kevin - Yeah, it's amazing how quickly it spun the ship around - I'll bet it was a nasty ride, 'specially at the ends of the boat.

It was spinning on its anchor, the ship. That's wild. When you are out at sea, the weather is cool as hell to watch, and the critters that happen by. I miss that a lot.

fathairybastard - Very cool. Yeah, I'll bet you see some amazing things out at sea.
