Glad you are ok WR. Looks like it was not as bad as advertised . Looking at the pic it doesn't look like devastation which is good. Again, glad you are ok. mspart

That's some mighty windage. We all hope to hear from you soon WR. Electric goes so do the cell lines. So it might be awhile. mspart

Them's is preferable mspart

Scary movie - The Princess Bride with the forest and unusually large rodents. Scary Scary Scary!!! mspart

That's why we have an initiative on the Nov ballot to rescind the carbon tax. It is a tax on gas, diesel, natural gas, electricity made from natural gas, food harvested and planted with machines that run on diesel, food trucked in by trucks running on diesel, the list goes on and on. The oil companies must bid on credits and then pass along the cost to the rate payer, me!! The natural gas is the same. The government lied and said it would be nothing, mere pennies. yeah, up to 50 pennies. mspart

We have that tax here in WA, and it is up for deletion via initiative. The carbon tax adds 50 cents to a gallon of gas, which is why we have the next to highest gas prices i tnhe nation. The money collected does not go to roads but to special interest groups, that may or may not do anything about CO2 in the atmosphere. Not only that, but they do not monitor how well the law is doing at reducing CO2. It's almost as if it were a giant money grab with no real concern about CO2 levels at all. mspart

These last two posts have me confused. Is he going or not? It just isn't clear to me. mspart

Having wrestling in a stadium is not ideal. Crowd is too far from the action. Minny had it in the Target Center back in the 90's and that was pretty good. We had great seats. I'm still pulling for Corvallis!! mspart

Hopefully today and tomorrow is no different. Be safe WR. mspart

Boy WR, this is looking really serious. Best of luck there. mspart

I haven't seen a cap gun in decades. But I had one as a kid and it was all kinds of fun until the caps hung up. But I guess that was part of the fun, figuring that out. Then off shooting bad guys again. mspart

Ribs! mspart

When unions start demanding 70% increases in wages, they have outlived their usefulness. The unions are there to protect jobs, not facilitate in getting rid of them. But that is what will happen. And the union will have fewer members to pay the fat cats at the top. They are self destructive. mspart

Indeed. mspart

Well, I'd say he knows how to count. mspart

I have a co-worker that lives in Tampa and he doesn't seem too concerned. I just hope it downgrades quickly and a lot for all of y'alls sakes!! mspart

You seem pretty relaxed, I don't know if I would be. I've never been in a hurricane. WE came close when we lived in Hawaii. A storm bigger than thee whole state was coming and then it fizzled. I don't think they have had anything bad since Iniki which killed Kauai. That happened a few years before we got there. But I was nervous about this one but didn't have to love through it. I just hope the best for you and your family. mspart

Where is this B-3 Bomber you speak of? Pics??? mspart

The US has the most inefficient port system because of the lack of automation. That can't continue indefinitely. I remember years ago when Northwest Airlines mechanics got rid of their union because of no contract for a few years. They voted in a new union who said they would get industry leading wages and benefits. And they did. Now Northwest did a lot of their own maintenance. So a year or so after that contract was signed, the shops were all closed and those guys lost their jobs to cheaper labor elsewhere. They priced themselves right out of the market. Management totally used that new union to get where they wanted to go. mspart

Looks like all of Florida is going to get hit. Stay safe WR. mspart

That side by side is pretty damning. mspart

If he did they didn't listen to him. Like everyone else. mspart
