Greetings from the Sunshine State


Today's storm of choice is Ike. Yes remember Ike? I think he was TD#9 look at what the storm formerly known as TD#9 can turn into. Yeah one bad big daddy! I am still confident in the protection of our home we have great strong shutters. I also think Ike will turn and we will receive some ok lots of rain but in the end all will be fine. Of course try living in a community where Cubans freak out at the slightest sound louder then their own voices. I work with several people who tend to freak over a regular rain fall. Yeah its good to hang here these days.
Ike has strengthened into a Category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds near 145 mph. The storm is moving west-northwest near 17 mph. The National Hurricane Center says it's too early to tell what land areas might eventually be affected.
Now on to fun stuff: Big Brother! Yeah tonight is Eviction night and my prediction is Renny is leaving. Pity. But that seems to be the way it is going to go. I hope that old fart Jerryattic is next.
Stay tune

Wow, Chonga! That storm looks BIG! Thanks for the weather updates so at least I can see what we're missing.
