Holy Crap!
That Jeanne was truly frightening.

I have experienced the fearsome four,
Bonnie, Charley, Frances and Ivan,
But this Jeanne hit us the most.

I have never heard such menacing, howling winds my whole life.
I can actually hear our windows and walls grunt and rumble.
It was scary.

Most people in our area are still without power,
and widespread flooding is still a problem.

With such an extraordinary season that we are experiencing here down south,
I must admit that I have learned a lot about these deadly hurricanes.

And so, as a concerned member of society,
I feel that I should share with you this “Hurricane Info” that I have researched,
just to be of service to everyone.
(To anyone who reads this crap, at least.)

I now bring you,

Hurricanes 101

1. How are hurricane’s names selected?

— A list that originated from the National Hurricane Center
and is now maintained with the Internatio…..
Well actually,
Hurricanes don’t really care what name you call them.

2. What wind speeds correspond to hurricane strength categories?

a. Category 1 == 74 – 95 mph
b. Category 2 == 96 – 110 mph
c. Category 3 == 111 – 130 mph
d. Category 4 == 131 – 155 mph
e. Category 5 == 155 – Holy Shiiiiiii

3. How do forecasters know a hurricane is coming?

— It’s either they have really, really good binoculars,
or hurricanes always leave a forwarding address.
But I think the hurricanes just love the beach.

4. What is the first thing you should do
if a hurricane is confirmed to be heading in your direction?

— Check your supplies for the big hurricane party,
and then begin drawing plans for the new house you will be building.

5. What should you do first after a hurricane passes?

— Determine if your computer is operational,
then see if your spouse, kids and pets are around,
then get back to your computer.

And lastly,
6. How can you protect your house in the event of a hurricane?

— With Duct Tape. No further questions.

Okay, okay!
Maybe they weren’t the best answers.
But one thing is for sure.

My computer is still working. Haha!

Anyway,
here are some cool links if you have read this far.

On a side note:
We will be moving to our new house, (which is still standing, Thank God.)
So, I might not be able to update for a while.
The DSL people told me that the transfer of service might be delayed
because of the hurricanes.

Stupid Storm.

*Sighs*
God I hate Mondays.
