Tropical Storm Isaac threatens to dampen the Republican National Convention Monday in Tampa, Florida. National media outlets are having a grand time anticipating a Grand Old Party washout. Tampa mayor Bob Buckhorn (D) announced Wednesday that he is absolutely prepared to call off the convention next week, with anticipated attendance of 70,000 delegates, party officials, journalists, protesters and others. Buckhorn has not indicated that he would attempt to mitigate liberal protests or a hastily planned Joe "Plugs" Biden visit to Tampa during the convention.
Time will tell. Stay tuned...

Oops: I meant “aiming” at the delta.
As a break from all the weather reports I am watching Masterpiece Mystery...a British series..very good. great acting and not politically correct.
LOL. I know that story.
Jim was reporting from Dauphin Island for one hurricane (can't remember which one)..the hurricane clipped the east end of the Island and then made an unusual turn to the right and quickly went away.. (It went right where he was, lol)

That certainly was an extremely involved plot! All very low key tho and not much of a budget; very well done!
I hope it stays East of NOLA!
Wednesday is the 7 year anniversary of Katrina. Yikes.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, they have had over one hundred small earthquakes under the small community of Brawley, CA at the south end of the Imperial Valley. The most recent 4.9 ten minutes ago.

Right on time for Katrina’s 7th Anniversary.
.
It does not look good but pretty much ready at home and will ready my businesses this morning. Hoping it keeps trucking west and into mexico. I hate to wish it on anyone but we just can’t take the hit again. The economy here is almost on life support... this will kill it off.
