Hurricane Irene was mighty, but, for here at least, not as bad as hurricane Isabel in 2003. The wind was up, but not at the same sustained level (like Isabel) so we had less damage and power was off for maybe 3 hours during the storm. Thanks for all the well wishes!
YES we did have an earthquake, measuring 5.9, about 70 miles away. It was pretty much over before we figured out what it was but it was not a comfortable sensation. And then tomorrow we are scheduled to get a category 2-3 hurricane (Irene) right through our front door. So I may not have an update for Monday seeing as we may not have internet or power. Or a house.

These ghost shows amaze me. That we can sit and watch people pretend to “see” or “feel” something for up to an hour at a time and that they can make killer bucks doing it. “In Search Of…” shows are the same way: “Here’s an hour or two of mostly known facts about a mystery and even though we reach no new conclusions we have put a bunch of ‘scientific’ a-holes on camera and gotten a lot of money from advertisers like credit counseling and penis enhancement pills. And is there an answer? We may never know…”
The comments you see here are actual comments that were snagged by my spam watch software (Hashcash). If by some major misfortune you accidentally approve one of these crap-turd messages then they can add comments at will. Fortunately my software lets me kill them before you see them. I would personally like to thank all of the malicious a-holes who send me 30, or so, of these every day. With my fist.
My friend Susanne let us stay at her cabin and we played Yahtzee. I enjoyed it immensely. My cabin mates? Not so much. I am good at Yahtzee (apparently.)
Yes, back on the unemployment line, living off the state. And all he can see at the hiring time is the light on the cobber pine. (Or something like that.). And no, the people at the unemployment office do not give a rat’s heinie how you feel about it.
I am now an ex-truck driver and I miss Trucktanic II something awful. Plus I am looking for a job. Again…
