Hi pals. WhyYou, best wishes.

mart · 05-25-2011, 05:54 PM

Thanks for the post Tigger, their frightening pictures, guess he's a lot luckier than some, hope he gets his internet back soon.

How does anyone cope with losing their home, just hope no one lost their lives.

122 dead at last count.

danielle_ftv · 05-25-2011, 07:44 PM

That's awful. I am glad that he is okay though.

tigger · 05-25-2011, 07:58 PM

the photos just dont compair to seeing it up close. I wish i would have known the other end of his street was open and we could have gotten to see him. When Jeromy,Missy and I tryed to get there we had to rely on the GPS. THE streeet signs are gone! we had food and water for him and the gard would not let us up the road. we were 3 hours away before he called me and said we could have gotten in from the other end! Oh well he is ok and that is what counts. I have other photos but i noticed there were some bodys in a cupple of them and i wont post thous! I deleated them as soon as i noticed! A lot of the photos were holding the cammera out the window and clicking so i didn't seee what i got till i downloaded them. Im thankfull he is ok and look forward to his return to the online world again. Ps. the cat is ok too.

Yes that is really devastating, hope the count doesn't get any higher.

135 as of an hour ago! Whyyou called me today and he is doing well, a lot of people have given him food so he is set and his friend Tamera took him to OK with her to her daughters graduation and they got back last night. and she checks in on him.

DWM222 · 05-29-2011, 03:53 PM

Good to hear whyyou is doing OK!

WhyYou · 07-20-2011, 07:43 PM

I am a bit more than okay now...I am FINALLY back ONLINE!!!!

However, in order to get back online I had to cancel my cable service (so my email address will change now and I will only have a cell phone) and get a wireless modem and wi-fi card ($161 for both plus $80 per month service charge). I bought the parts yesterday but could not get the modem software to locate the modem. I went so far as to set up a home visit by the Geek Squad. Then I thought of something to check. My wireless LAN was disabled. I set it on automatic and it connected.

I have a 10 GB data limit so I will have to spend most of it on my college work but I will be here as much as possible.

I am so glad to be back!!!!!

Anoree · 07-20-2011, 08:20 PM

YEAH, YOU'RE BACK!

Congratulations for the new connection.
I'm glad that you're among us again.

tigger · 07-20-2011, 10:27 PM

Glad to have you back my friend!

DWM222 · 07-21-2011, 03:07 AM

Welcome Back!

mart · 07-21-2011, 05:40 PM

WELCOME BACK WHYYOU!!!

I haven't missed you at all my friend!.

Ok i was lieing.

Good to have you back my friend

WhyYou · 07-21-2011, 06:01 PM

Thanks for the greetings everybody. It's nice to know that I've been missed. I'll try hard not to do it again for at least a year (tornado season is over...lol).

Dealing with the wi-fi connection is a big pain. Sometimes I get a strong signal and sometimes I get a weak signal. It's intermittent internet. Plus, the wi-fi card is battery powered and the battery only lasts about 5 hours. I will be going crazy for the next 2 years.
