....Now everyone lean to the right; that's it, real good.

Now lean way over to the left; hold it; ok here we go.

Get those arms up in the air; right up in the air just like Superman.

Just keep them there and start running in circles; there, you are getting it.

Now keep that up and yell AAaaayyyyyyyeeee!!!!!!!:eek:

AAaaayyyyyyyeeeeee!!!!!!!

Perfect!:thumbup:

You have just completed my patented hurricane preparation course. Were this a real hurricane, we would have asked you to extend that last part for the duration of the storm. :D

You are now all qualified to move to the stormy coast.:foot:

ps I was just driving around sunny South Florida; and, the way the hype over Tropical Storm Ernesto has everyone spooked; there are many who will likely be dead before the first rains arrive. I had at least five cars cut me off at speeds exceeding twice the speed limit; two of them right through a red light and another while driving on the wrong side of the street. The lines at the gas pumps are averaging 25 cars in length; it will take around an hour to get gas; and everyone seems to be on the road looking for last minute gas and supplies. Well... I did need that latest DVD ...it was either that, or watch to idiots who are doing their best to spark off a mass panic.
 
its named after a guy-it will blow some wind and die down fast-
unlike the storms named after females-they take almost nothing and blow it way out of proportion,then wont quit-
 
Not sure they should have evacuated this one. Wait too long and you'll get blamed; call it early and people die running like chickens with their heads cut off.

Just a windy day for you, thank g__.

It would have been a cat 4 for us in the panhandle. :eek:

Should seen the gas hoarding on Sat., when it was coming this way. :mad:

Saw a whole pickup bed full of 5 gal. cans being filled.

Bet you don't even lose power. :D

Good luck anyways.

I can prove he's fibbing, just check out that four letter word that starts with a "W". BWAAAAAA. . . . . :p

Prayers for my friends and family in Florida. I've got a creeping feeling that the Cape Verde/Caribbean cooker is just now hitting a high simmer and ready to really boil. :(

We will be lucky to get enough rain to water the grass, so waiting here for that that phone call that says we don't get the free day off tomorrow. :mad:
 
I'm now convinced that the TV guys all own stock in Home Depot.
What a bunch of (pick your cuss word here)
 
My brother-in-law in Plantation Key said they got NOTHING. No surge, no high winds. Just a lot of rain.

Good.

That is more then I saw. The funny (sad) thing is that they are still at it. It looks like the National Hurricane Center really dropped the ball this time. They got the path wrong, they got the intensity wrong, they cost us a large pile of money and grief; and, I don't see anyone stepping up to take ownership of the mess.

The director (Max Mayfield) was on the radio whining for more money this morning for better computer models. Where's Ray Nagin when you need 'em?

It's usually around this time of year that I start looking forward (read "start hoping") to seeing February.:rolleyes:

After two cat 3 hits in nine months, we actually have PARTIES on Nov. 1 to celebrate the end of the h_______e season. It's become a new tradition.
