Typhoon with 230 mph wind gusts and is making landfall

god damn that's going to suck. i was in southern luzon in 2009 when a typhoon emong smashed the island... i caught the periphery and it was still insane. the bus i was taking from manila to legaspi (largely to escape the maelstrom) ended up getting caught in washed-out roads and i found out the next day that entire bridges and roads had been swamped, with other buses dragged out to sea.

 

and that will pale in comparison to this.

The story I heard about that military base was that the Phils wanted us gone. Badly.

When a volcano was showing signs of erupting, we moved all our equipment out.

The volcano eventually erupted and destroyed what was the naval base. The powers that be saw it was destroyed and said "yep, you can have it. as is."

Remember that time you were caught in the Philipenes during a typhoon???

I didn't think it was the 80s, but I I thought I remembered a story about some of our military raping or killing

a young teen and they wanted us out completely but I'm not sure.  

 

Regardless, this is being ranked as one of the top 5 storms in recorded history.  I was in Myrtle Beach

when Hugo hit, and I can't imagine a 230 mph wind gust

:lol:

 

i have lucked out when it comes to natural disasters. i escaped the brunt of emong, and nestled comfortably in legaspi for two weeks next to mayon, an active volcano that holds the distinction of being the world's most perfectly-formed cone... and a month after i flew home it blew its top and half the province was evacuated. then last year i drove across upland ecuador, took a picture in front of snowcapped chimborazo, and saw on the news the next day that it'd erupted out of freaking nowhere and the country was mobilizing to evacuate the surrounding communities.

 

i'm starting to rethink this russia thing

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
