Statement makes no sense anyway. How would someone leaving early to get away from the storm even affect someone headed for that town from the other side?

I forgot the sarcasm remark.

I wouldn't blame him even if it was true, kooks ruined his vacation, I don't think he needs them under his bedroom window (to quote the jerk Donahue).

You know folks

For about three years I have endured bad winters and getting stuck on in my house on a mountain in West Virginia. I've been threatening to pack up and head for Florida.

I've come to the conclusion after seeing all these big blows that I am in the best place I can be. No hurricanes, no tornadoes, and I live up on the hill too far to be in a flood.

Maybe I'll just go get myself a new four wheel drive for winter and quit bitchin.

Yes - security guards for the casino/hotel. Unbelievable. They were enjoying it in the beginning - not so much towards the end.

That's the money shot I was looking for. Shuster has been on my list for a long time. Since he used to work for Fox.

I had thought the backside/after the eye was worse, but I could be wrong. I'm definitely not an expert on these things. Perhaps someone else on this thread can help?

I read the Idaho news article on him this morning. Your assessment is right on. Does it seem we've evolved from the 60's hippies/flower children to outright crazy people?

No. Not I.

I've got this open....

...and was listening to some dweeb talking about a Christmas light strand that blows harder when the wind kicks up and doesn't blow as hard when the wind dies down.

I kid you not.

Heh; I just cracked open my first beer (and I've got powerful stuff I brought back from my last Canada trip).

It was probably closer to 3 - 4 million people. This town is just about empty right now.

How a guy w/ a voice like Shuster's ever got to be one of the main reporters at a major network is beyond me. To be fair though, I think he's been getting voice coaching or something as his voice isn't as bad as it used to be.

Desperation is a terrible thing to watch.

I dunno, during the current and lengthy Moonbat Season it seems to be bordering on pure lunacy.

I mean we have Cindy, Dean, Kennedy, McKinney, Rangel, Conyers, Boxer, McDermott, Jane Fonda, sKerry, Sean Penn, Move-on, Moore-on,etc etc etc, they've even dusted off Joan Baez and Peter Paul and Mary, LOL.

The big protest tomorrow should be a hoot(C-SPAN is covering it), I hope they bring BIG signs.

I'm just digging their "graphics" (the handwriting on cardboard cards they prop up in front of the camera).
