One hope in this particular thread to look at the lighter side of a serious situation.

It might distract people from worrying about friends in the area of impact.

And this is on a day that we remember what happened on 9-11-2001.

This is a very serious situation -- just hope we all can lighter up an relax [when possible].

My relatives are in the Corpus Christi area and have been spared, but all those people in harm’s way are somebody’s relatives.

Having the NWS issue warnings that include the words *facing certain death* is about unprecedented.

I’m afraid that this one is a little hard for me to take lightly at all. I mean, those that choose to ignore such clear warning can only blame themselves for what they get, but a 20 foot storm surge on top of high tide and with up to 50 foot waves is just a monster storm.

I’m not even relaxing about the remnants we’ll be facing by about Mon. I’m battening down everything on our property.

I appreciate your intent but somehow for this one, I don’t really think it’s going to work.
