BREAKING NEWS....

At approximately 10am this morning a Tornado touched down in a small Utah town. The Tornado, affectionately known as Ethan, was quickly followed by a smaller but just as powerful Tornado named Colby. These 2 Tornadoes single handedly destroyed all the piles of folded laundry in a suburban household, and managed to pick them up and force them over the railing to the floor below.

The owner of the home explains "there was no warning, not a sound was made during the catastrophic event". These silent Tornadoes, also referred to as preschoolers and toddlers, often use tactics like pretending to play well together and code words to hide the actual destruction they are performing. "We must be more vigilant and careful with the toddler and preschool variety, as they have been known in the past to destroy much, much more than just piles of folded laundry, I remember the flour storm of 1999, in which Tornadoes Jordan and Cameron totalled a whole bag of flour and spread chaos and more accross their Grandmother's kitchen in Washington. I hope to never have to live through anything like that again."

The good news is, Ethan and Colby, are no longer tornado force winds and are seen only as cloud bursts and strikes of lightning. These are expected to continue until for the next 16-18 years. With some careful attention storms such as these can be avoided in the future.
