You must be watching this storm closely then. Once the island gets back on their feet, they are going to need your US Dollars.

I have a soft spot for Isla Mujeres, a 4 mile long island off the coast of Cancun. Right now, it looks like this storm is going to miss them & Cancun. The interesting thing is Cancun got pounded hard 2 years ago. But Isla didn’t seem to have the intense damage that Cancun endured during Wilma.

We just have to pray that the shelters they have in place hold up during these storms.

No, this is like the last two that were broken. Think it’s a little too far north to catch as much as the Minnow did, but the storm could be bigger by then, so only time will tell.

Aug. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Crude oil fell after forecasters said Hurricane Dean would probably miss the largest oil-production regions of the Gulf of Mexico.

Dean, an ``extremely dangerous'' Category 4 hurricane, is heading for Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula after leaving a trail of damage across Jamaica, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. The Gulf of Mexico accounts for more than a quarter of U.S. oil output, mostly off the Texas and Louisiana coasts.

Speculators must be on vacation.

I think that would be a very useful poll for FreeRepublic to put up for a couple days...

How do you connect to FR?

Broadban?

Highspeed?

DialUp?

I know dialup is the only option I have and I’ll bet there are a bunch more. Conservatives tend to live in more rural areas.
