shazzam7 -- here's the working link that will take folks directly to the page about dubya's 'love-attack' on Merkel that has the video (that link got truncated in the copy over [part of the arcania of advanced iHub posting], but it was good enough to get me back to the full direct link) -- http://www.bild.t-online.de/BTO/news/aktuell/2006/07/18/merkel-bush-liebes-attacke/merkel-bush-liebe...

as for dubya -- geesh -- he's obviously regularly been in some quite pronounced sort of child-like euphoric state recently, inappropriate acting-out and all (see also, of course, [items linked in] http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=12063285 and preceding) -- . . .

I'm not a meteorologist as such, never took any formal courses -- but I've had a keen interest particularly in severe weather ever since I was a young kid (over 45 years now), and by now I think I can legitimately assert that I do know and understand quite a lot about weather and climate

and I have done a fair amount of chasing over the past 23 years -- in my old signature pic, as appears e.g. in http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=3967329 (an old favorite of mine) (. . .), the tornado with the horizontal vortex feeding directly into it is the 4/26/91 Red Rock, which was an F6 (i.e., max surface winds [easily] greater than 318 mph), as it approached mile marker 200 (which, among other things, it flattened) on I35 in north central Oklahoma -- I'm the guy on the right -- at that point in time trying (unsuccessfully) to convince the 2-man camera crew that we should jump back in our vehicles, my car in front of their minivan pointed south in the median of I35, and swing them around and quickly head north to get closer (two other guys I didn't even notice were there at the time, but with whom I later connected, were shooting the video from which that signature pic, a vidcap, came) (I changed to my current signature pic because that one used to be a much smaller image, but was then changed at its origin on the web to its current [much larger file] size, which I was informed can be a pain in the butt for folks with slower connections and/or smaller screens)

Looks to me that Dubya is life of the party over there.
