The End Is Near

Ahoy!

Well, I’m still here. Tallahassee didn’t receive the full wrath of Dennis the Menace, but we got our fair share of rain and wind. Thankfully we didn’t loose power or I would have had to go old school and program by candlelight…on my laptop. It’s either that or use punch cards. On the downside, Dennis did manage to do something to Comcast, so no internet for most of us in Tallahassee (fished in). Heck, I’m having to wire this posting via telegraph. Stop. Please send bandwidth. Stop.

And if that wasn’t bad enough, there appears to be a front moving in that could cause what’s left of Dennis to make a U-Turn. Add that to the tropical depression expected to be a hurricane by this Friday and another system brewing behind it in the Atlantic, and I would say it’s time to break out the ‘Repent Now’ signs.

As Artie would say, the state of Florida is now under a Tropical Storm Hurricane Flash Flood Apocalypse Warning.

Who knew the Four Horsemen were really hurricanes?

    Telegraphs don’t have spell/grammer checks. Stop.

    H’ok so. You here’s Florida? That’s a sweet State you might say. Wrong!

    Yes. We are still under an Apocalypse watch.
    Yes. I am still shaking my fist at the Tropics.

    Artie-

    If we loaded millions of pounds of ice into the Ocean a few hundred miles off the coast of Africa, would it reduce the number of hurricanes?

    Dustin,

    It might help. Cooler water weakens hurricanes.We could dump the ice off the coast of Florida also.

    My thought was to drag ice from the Polar Ice Caps up here. I hear they are melting anyway. So, why not.

    That would seriously make the hippies angry.

    ^Two reasons to do it, then!

    Now we just need to pool our money and buy a tug boat off Ebay…

    as predicted, the front of my paper this morning said “Dennis becomes a menace in Bartow.”

    The AJC (Atlanta Journal-Constitution) did have a vent I thought you all would enjoy “A balanced diet is a beer in each hand”
