Tornados and hurricanes result in weird and unpredictable patterns of destruction sometimes. Here’s a current overhead shot of the neighborhood I lived in in Wichita Falls, Texas, from the time I was born until 1978. A massive F4 tornado hit the town in April, 1979. We had just moved across town. Every home you see in this shot had to be rebuilt after that tornado. Except one. Our former home survived with very little damage. At the time, people also believed you needed to open windows in the event of a tornado, otherwise the pressure difference would cause the house to explode like a bomb. The then residents of our old house were out of town when the tornado hit. The house was locked up tight. No explodey. The house is still there today. It’s the one labeled 4654 Bunny Run Dr. It ain’t God. It’s Chaos.
