The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

"Is something up?" Goldie asked as she heard Whistler and went to the window to see what Whistler was whistling about.  She looked out the window and squinted her eyes to see if she could make out what was out there.  

"Is that what I think it is?" She said.

"Heh.....no hard feelings?" Edmond smiled nervously in a desperate attempt to stop the Duke, who he knew was within seeing distance

"Do you have a storm cellar?  That would be a good place to head to." Goldie asked as she looked over at Chanticleer.

Edmund heard a loud sound, listening, he realized it was the Duke who amplified the sound of his rumbling stomach

The vulture above began turning the house side-to-side, tossing the contents inside about.  "Come on out, you overstuffed turkey!" he shouted.  "We have yet to finish our engagement!"

----------

Although the sighting of the tornado was important, there was something more to it that Whistler could see, and he can't explain it to them with his kind of speech.  He grabbed Patou and pulled him closer to the window.

"Look, I believe there's a tornado outside," Patou protested.  "But you should know I don't see well like you can.  See?  I can barely see the twister from here."

Whistler slapped his forehead in frustration...

"Who's there?!" Edmund called, panicked at the thought of ANOTHER big bad bird of some kind nearby, he could tell the voice didn't belong to the Duke.

"Is it safe enough here or should we go elsewhere?" Goldie asked looking around at those present, not having any real experience at things like tornadoes.

Edmond gasped as he saw a familiar set of talons stamp down in front of him....

"Like a basement or cellar.  Are tornadoes common around here?" Goldie asked as she looked around at the others.
