As I was listening to the news I kept hearing this "help is on the way" Help is on the way, isn't that Kerry's slogan?

Never thought I would say this, but good for Disney - it's open. Got to keep the economy going.

The county should ban trailers in those hurricane alley areas. We all end up paying for it with higher insurance coast let alone loss of life.I saw shots of regular homes and while some had roof damage most were still standing and intact.

Look at all those small towns along river flood plains the gov/t picked up and moved to higher ground instead of paying out grants to these pepole every 15 years because their house gets flooded

He lives just outside of Orlando.

Cripes.....doesn't anyone have a camera down there in Florida? The only photos I've seen have been the same dozen or so from the Fox News site that have been around since early this morning.

Please pray for these people. Especially the elderly in trailor communities ... they've lost all they own ... it's hard to start again at that age with a fixed income. Though they may not be materially wealthy I hope they are strong in faith. Just because they may not have as much as you ... doesn't mean they aren't good people. Pray that they have the will to go on and start again. Pray for those who lost loved ones.

Jimmy Buffett
Trying To Reason With Hurricane Season
Written by - Jimmy Buffett
From - A-1-A
Squalls out on the gulf stream
Big storm's comin' soon
I passed out in my hammock
And God I slept 'til way past noon
Stood up and tried to focus
I hoped I wouldn't have to look far
I knew I could use a Bloody Mary
So I stumbled next door to the bar

And now I must confess, I could use some rest
I can't run at this pace very long
Yes it's quite insane, I think it hurts my brain
But it cleans me out and then I can go on

There's somethin' about this Sunday
It's a most peculiar gray
Strollin' down the avenue that's known as A1A
Feelin' tired, then I got inspired
I knew that it wouldn't last long
So all alone I walked back home
Sat on my beach and then I made up this song

And now I must confess, I could use some rest
I can't run at this pace very long
Yes it's quite insane, I think it hurts my brain
But then it cleans me out and then I can go on

Well the wind is blowin' harder now
Fifty knots or thereabouts
There's white caps on the ocean
And I'm watchin' for water spouts
It's time to close the shutters
It's time to go inside
In a week I'll be in gay Paris
That's a mighty long airplane ride

And now I must confess, I could use some rest
I can't run at this pace very long
Yes it's quite insane, I think it hurts my brain
But it cleans me out and then I can go on

Yes it cleans me out and then I can go on
