Is it just me or....

Related to the hurricane's remnants hitting the area…

Why is it I saw so many people walking around in flip-flops and no poncho/jacket/umbrella today? Did 5 busloads of Californians roll into town? I wouldn't care so much, but when they're blocking the fuckin' door of a store because they're seeking a dry spot, it's getting out of hand.

flip flops in the rain isn't really a bad idea………..feet don't get really wet at least they don't stay that way anyway……..

i just assume naturally that americans are that stupid…… and i stay out of the way when something bad is going to happen though………….

god bless dumericans…………..

I guess you haven't seen the phenomenon called "flip-flop'n-slide." :D If it's a light rain, feet can handle the traction, but not in a downpour like today.

and if so, why should this giving spirit be limited to "natural" disasters? isn't a disaster just a large scale tragedy? why are only large scale disasters compensated?

They're often compensated. Talk to the 9/11 millionaires.

Again,the hurricanes were NOT a coastal or a barrier island issue. Frances pummelled Orlando, as well as Port Charlotte. Man, I hope folks are more helpful and sympathetic if a plane falls on your house….And it's more often trailers and manufactured homes that get completely destroyed. You know, working folks who live where they work…

Well, it's not a "season," exactly. But given where the Capital City of the Great Satan sits on the al-Quaida target list, falling planes might be somewhat more of a hazard here than in, I dunno, Calgary.

And regarding your previous query, that was a pretty fat straight line you fed me.

You may want to work on completing sentences before commenting on the nation's collective IQ.
