Breaking News: The World Has Been Blown Away!

Young Groundhog in the Sun
You heard it here first.  It seems like it just keeps getting windier and windier.  Sometimes, the wind blows so strongly, it's ridiculous.  This seems to be happening more frequently.  What a cold, godforsaken world this is.  I believe that the world, as we know it, will be blown away by raging, out-of-control winds.  I'm no meteorologist, but it seems to me like hurricanes and tornadoes fall into the category of wind.  It's wind that blows cars and trucks around.  It's wind that destroys buildings and scatters the resulting debris with the greatest of ease.  I predict it will get worse.  It will eventually get so bad that it will blow skyscrapers over, and once that happens, it will be the beginning of the end.
Prepare now.  Prepare for the end of the world.  You have been summarily warned.  I'm not sure what summarily means, but it seems to fit here.  The end of the world, as they know it, has already occurred for the squirrels who used to live in front of my apartment building.  Recently, all their nests, that had been supported by tree branches, came crashing to the ground.  I sincerely hope that none of them were hurt when that happened.  Sadly, they have moved.  I used to feed pure in-the-shell nuts to them.  They used to chase and corner me for my nuts.  That hasn't happened in weeks.  I still have a lonely bag of nuts sitting on my kitchen counter.  That sack of nuts is a constant reminder of how we will all be brought to our collective knees.
You have been warned.
