My old college football buddy and room mate is the mayor of Tuscalossa and he is talking right now on the news and he is having a tough time. My thoughts and prayers are going out to him and as of 7:30pm just Tuscaloosa 17 confirmed fatalities and that number is going to go up.

Geez, I hope it isn't as bad here. I have a pregnant sister in G-town plus family in E-town. (Georgetown and Elizabethtown, respectively).
Scary stuff. Thoughts and prayers for people in Tuscaloosa.

I'm turning in, too. Remember guys, if you hear rain hitting all 4 sides of your house, be like Burt the Turtle and Duck 'n Cover. I'm being serious. Last thing we need is more fatalities from storms. <S>

180 dead at the moment.  My niece was in the Hospital in Tuscaloosa working when the roof got torn off and the windows busted out.  Some pictures will be put up in abit.  Still trying to get in contact with some family in the areas.
Death is but a doorway to life, only those who fear life fear its opening.

Anyone that wants to have some help contacting people in the Birmingham and Tuscaloosa area drop me a PM and I will do what I can to help you guys.

I have a pretty good contact with a customer in Tuscaloosa that can help get some information from the area and can get into areas of the town that are hard hit.
