You surely deserve a vacation, but where?

Maybe Bismark? It might be a tad cold in December, but you won't have to worry about hurricanes and might get lucky and experience a really bitchin' blizzard.

Per NBC Nightly News, nobody squealing about collapsed hotels, missing islands, or any kind of mass casualties (tourista or otherwise out of Cancun.

The video showed 2, maybe 3 feet of water in downtown Cancun, leading to a preliminary surge estimate close to the 7-11 feet predicted. Damage to buildings looked surprisingly light, one partial collapse of a large grass roofed building apparantly on a beach or waterfront, elsewhere largely cosmetic.

Still worried about 30 to 40 inches of rain over a widespread area and poorly constructed homes, but for now, no news is good news.
