Coming our way Sat with possible tornados! Wonder how empty the shelves are of bread and milk now…. Thankfully, I've got a spare propane tank in case the power goes out like it did last time…

I hope it doesn't affect the one show I'm going to this month…

My basement is leaking.

Again. We had the door and frame re-done so this wouldn't happen.

God. Damn it.

Oh grow a pair and get over yourselves….we got 'hammered' by Faye here in S. FL the other week and when it was all said and done just reminded us of a typical October day in Ireland.

Ike could be a different story but I'm not getting my knickers in a twist until I actually witness a hurricane down here. So it blows away a trailer park….what moron builds trailer parks in an area subject to very windy weather?

Yes I apologize, my mistake…I should've remembered that having lived up there for 20 years. They've doubled it to a whole inch these days??????????
