    Where does Tina Turner live? We can predict what city Ike will head towards to beat the crap out of on that basis.

    Yes, Ms. Di. That IS proper usage and punctuaction. A Gold star for you, madam.

    Very nice, Ottomatton... we could possibly could use the help. Ike looks like it's strengthening badly.
    "HELP IKE?!?!?! You're trying to Help Ike?!?!?! :mad:"

    Check out this historical map. Only one storm that has passed within 300 miles of Ike has affected the US coast in the month of September since 1851. None have made it into the Gulf. If that currect track holds up we might be seeing a first.

    You don't die "from the hurricane"... you die from the headaches Neil Frank gives you... or the heat in the evacuation traffic... or the screams from people running out of gas on I-10. :D

    At last, my evil plot to attack Canada with a hurricane is coming to fruition.

    ah, yes...who can forget that infamous tempest, Hurricane Flossie of '78?

    (Flossie?? really?? isn't that a character from Dora the Explorer?? or perhaps from a circa-1982 public service announcement about proper oral hygiene?)

    Nope. And it is mainly due to me yelling "noonan" at the hurricanes. It tends to mess up their concentration.

    You are all welcome.
