It seems that some FReepers just “live” to laugh at a few others and their misfortunes!
I don’t want to laugh at someone’s misfortunes (usually, unless it is obama manhandling an umbrella, etc.). But I think pointing out how unprepared people are is okay.
My BIL is in NJ. Last year they had a storm and he had no cash on hand, power was out all over, bad roads so he couldn’t drive. Wife and two kids. He was saying how they were “out of food” and when he walked into town he couldn’t even buy anything because he only had a credit card (power was out).
Sad to say, but a year later with this storm, I expect to hear a similar story.
I told my wife yesterday to text him to get ready, but she said “Why? He’s not going to listen.”
