June 20, 2009 By: Cal Skinner Category: Basement, Cowering, Fear, Keely, Message of the Day, Tornado Warnnig

During the tornado warning Friday, Keely Cat was hiding under the bottom stair to the basement.

One of my son’s friends was sitting on top of him. My wife was above.

My son and I were standing up.

Then, my son told me where the Mitten was.

In the safest place in the house should a tornado hit.

Message of the Day – Fear

November 01, 2008 By: Cal Skinner Category: Chain Saw Massacre, Crystal Lake, Fear, Halloween, Message of the Day, South School

After South Elementary School’s annual Halloween Parade, one of the grownups pretended to be chasing some girls who appeared to be junior high school.

He was dressed as the chain saw massacre guy, fake heads hanging from his belt.

He turned on the motor of his fake chain saw and started to run after the girls.
