I asked Maxie why Allie got a special day named after her.
She's just a big windbag after all....
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Heard it all before, Allie. Seriouslies...." |
An' HE said it wasn't about Allie at all.
"Observed each year in the United States on April 12th, National Big Wind Day, commemorates the recording of the highest natural wind gust measured on the Earth’s surface. On the afternoon of April 12, 1934, the Mount Washington Observatory recorded winds at 231 miles per hour."
Seriouslies, who KNEW?
An' in case anyone doubts me, just take a look at all Allie's texts yesterday!
She went ON and ON and ON ... Good thing our dad has unlimited minutes with his plan, cuz she just used up elebenty billion of them!

Who knew them winds could blow so strong, but bet not half as strong as Allie would have been had she heard. purrs from rainy UK pal ERin
ReplyDeleteOh, Faraday...!
ReplyDeleteYou better hope Allie doesn't see this blog post, Faraday. ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I am thinking that the lady cats (or lady doggies) wouldn't want to be called windbags. LOL
ReplyDeleteif you guys are gonna call her a windbag, you should probably be prepared to run :)
ReplyDeleteFor your sake I hope Allie is too busy texting to read the blog today!!!
ReplyDeleteFaraday you are unkind to your sister. Allie is a sensitive ladycat after all. Hope she sends me a text so we can have some girl chat
ReplyDeleteand what happens when the wind goes even faster than that on a different day?
ReplyDeleteFaraday, you're clever and all, but you really deserve a smack for that one, from the big girl herself.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of that before.
ReplyDeletedood...if yur sisturr hurd thiz, ya best sleep with one eye open fora bit....just....sayin ~~~ ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteNever heard of Big Wind Day although my Mom says whenever Dad eats certain foods, there's often a big wind but somehow I don't think it's the same thing - right??
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
That is surely one Big Wind!
ReplyDeleteWe never knew about Big Wind Day, but we know that Allie had lots to say in her text messages! :)
ReplyDeleteMOL that Allie loves to text!!
ReplyDeleteWe did not know that interesting fact. Thanks for enlightening us. It is big wind here almost everyday. It's killing Mom and Dad when they go biking. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth ad Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteThat is seriously strong wind!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you introduce us to all these "days". Faraday, I can't believe Allie is THAT much of a windbag. However, the texting thing - weird.
ReplyDeleteWe don't think even AllIe could blow 231 miles an hour!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of Big Wind Day. Allie may have been long winded, but I don't think she was a windbag.
ReplyDeleteYou just have to come to this blog often to learn of all these cool things!! OMC!! And MOL, too:))
