And what does Haboob mean?
Dust/sand storm.
It's like the Mother of all sandstorms. Usually seen in middle-east deserts, but recently noticed in Phoenix.

If Haboob means sandstorm they should just rename Lubbock Haboob

I bet that video footage of the Sandstorm in Phoenix ends up in some disaster movie some day.
I don't think Oatmeal has a movie theater, but Bertram near Oatmeal does.

Planking. The new craze that's sweeping the nation.
– Planking is a popular game that involves lying face down stiff as a board in unusual, and sometimes dangerous, locations and uploading the pictures to the internet.

They rehearsed across the street from me ... neighbors before I retired and moved to the country from Houston/Pasadena.
I liked the Marshal Tucker sounding songs, never got into Metal much. top song on that link is decent.

I was unhappy with my wife's mood swings, so I bought her a mood ring the other day so I could better monitor what mood she's in. I've discovered that when she's in a good mood, the ring turns green.............and when she's in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on my forehead. Apparently, I was supposed to buy a diamond...........

Looks to me like the "frat boys" have WAY too much time on their hands.

So last night I got a wild hair and attempted to "Plank" across a chair.
...it was unsuccessful.
