PyWeek - Monkey Typer

The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type or create a particular chosen text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare. Given one monkey, and a typewriter, I bring you:

Twisted Twister:

You are Sammy the Spotter, out to test your latest invention: the Tornado Obliterator and Eradicator 3000 (TOE 3000). Using your spotter experience, you drive out, keeping tuned to the Baker Weather Service (the best weather service on the planet). Suddenly, you hear over the radio: "Tornadoes approaching!" Perfect! This is the chance to see if the TOE 3000 will really work! You rush on out, careful to stay in your car. This is it! Oh NO! There are houses here. Maybe you can help them! Can you eradicate the tornadoes, save the houses, and keep away from the lightning storm?

Well, it's as done as it's going to get. I didn't ave enough time to record sounds for it, but overall I'm happy with how it turned out. This challenge was tough, but I'm glad for Pyweek and the Python language. This is my second attempt at Pyweek. This entry was a little more ambitious than the last. Hopefully it shows. :) Thanks!
