Stormchasing from home

Screenshot from a live video feed at Live Storm Chasers. It shows a view of Texas flatlands as a gray thunderstorm brews on the horizon.
Here’s a screenshot of a live video feed from stormchaser Gary Schmitt. He’s just one of dozens who share their adventures at Live Storm Chasing.

Photo is of the following typewritten text. Saturday, May 4, 2019. Chicago, USA. Canon Typostar 5. Maybe you like it, maybe you don't. I'm talking about bad weather — thunderstorms, especially. I love being ou t in bad storms and experiencing Mother Nature during her many emotional outbursts. I've often considered driving around out on the plains during tornado season but I don't own a car and renting one would be a bad idea for this since I'm sure Hertz, Avis, Enterprise and the like are not going to allow CDW insurance to cover hail damage that occurs when you intentially put one of their vehicles in harm's way. The next best thing is following stormchasers online. I like to keep track of these folks on Live Storm Chasing; the URL is livestormchasing.com. Some of the chaser have a live audio feed going too, so you get to hear them strategize and copordinate their movements. In terms of artistry, the No. 1 best chaser is Pecos Hank. He's into music and creates the soundtrackfor his videos and also has an interest in reptiles. His url is pecoshank.com. What typewriter would I bring with ,e when stormchasing? This Typestar, of course. It runs on batteries if needed. Note: As usual, this typecast has not been copy edited.

That’s “gear acquisition syndrome.”

The eyes have it

Selfie of me, Leigh Thomas Hanlon, staring into the camera with those wide-open puppy dog eyes.

My agent assures me that even if I’m unable to land a gig doing motion capture for “dog eyes” I can pick up a few bucks posing for a Margaret Keane art class.

It’s a big, wide wonderful world

I fully accept Charles Fort’s observation that one measures a circle beginning anywhere.
