A Captain Underpants Movie?

I'm seeing conflicting information on whether there will be a Captain Underpants movie. Author Dav Pilkey has publicly said there will not be one. Time will tell. Certainly only my destiny is at stake, for it is a role that I was born to play. I would gladly submit to the required dietary prerequisites, and I would shave my head.

Here's a link to the Captain Underpants page. Check out the Captain Underpants name generator. My C.U. name is "Snotty Wafflebuns."

Tornado at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway?

The most tension coming out of this past Sunday's running of the Indianapolis 500 came when tornados past just a few miles from the track within a few minutes of when the race was halted due to rain. It takes about 2-3 hours to empty the place and get the traffic clear when it's not thundering and pouring down rain. There's not enough shelter to go around when the stands are full. (Usually on rainy days, the crowds are down.) What shelter that there is would be more of a danger than a refuge in the case of a tornado.

This got me thinking that if a tornado hit any full race track, whether it was the Indy 500, the Daytona 500, or even the Kentucky Derby, you could have a disaster on the level of 9-11.
