Have already sent it to my watch-on-the-beach Marine - -
he'll need a laugh when the storm is over.

Possible he is without power now to report via computer.
Fox reported a water spout was seen off his Emerald Isle location as Isabel arrived.
Beaufort is without power, and possibly more of that area.

Wow. Am familiar with Beaufort as .45MAN and I stayed in a bed and breakfast there in Oct. 2001.

Called my daughter in Fairfax, VA last night (she was working) and begged my s-i-l to make sure my daughter wasn't foolish enough to drive to her job in Georgetown today. He said he would try, but my daughter is extremely hard-headed.

Like her mom. :-(
