Walter Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Here's a report on the tornado. When I checked my watch, it was 4:00 pm. A Mapquest search of the following intersection shows Fail Road is the next road east of where I was on the Indiana Toll Road near LaPorte and just north. Yeah, I should have grabbed the camera. But you just never know when seconds could make a difference. I was never in danger, but at the time, all I could think was, "Big upside-down funnel cloud reaching down from the sky and touching the ground in front of me = OMG...a tornado!" LAPORTE -- LaPorte County sheriff's Detective Shayna Mireles, 32, was tracking a tornado about 4 p.m. Thursday when the tornado lifted her squad car and hurled it over a fence. Mireles was taken to LaPorte Hospital, where her injuries were described as not life-threatening. Mireles encountered the tornado on Fail Road, near County Road 700 North, according to Detective Sgt. Roger Bernard, her supervisor. More MIke, I'm just giving you a rough time. I really am glad you ran for the ditch and you're OK. I guess the sheriff's Detective had a up lifting experience, EH !?

ravedodger Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Maybe I'm odd. I happen to like a lot of the things Cesario says. He's a drum corps freak just like everyone else here. His enthusiasm while introducing a show is contagious, and it makes me look for the things he's talking about. I wish the intros were kept in the Legacy DVD's. A lot of his comments were great and are now classics. I remember him talking about PR in 95 or 96 and saying "it's like taking a bath in chocolate". That was spot on, IMO, and was an instant classic. Just another drum corps fan, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeke Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 (edited) I don't quite remember when he left the broadcast, but it was a good decision to use Delucia instead of him on the ESPN2 broadcast. When I said " MICHAEL CESARIO!! Enough said". That in no way was a slam on him what so ever..but rather the oppisite. Surprises abound with what he has to say about this or that..brings a lot of colorful ingsight I think and yes..you can't help but laugh at times.
