Here Comes Hannah !

[MikeA]

Just talked to Faygo.  His power is out but he and his wife are fine.  He said they were having steady 60 to 70 mile per hour winds but his preparations pretty much eliminated exposure to much loss...other than caffeine!  One pot of coffee brewed before they lost power and is surviving on Pepsi now.Oh, he also said to tell folks in Jersey to get under cover....it'w coming your way!

Glad to hear Faygo is OK! I live in Brooklyn so Im waiting for my shot of Hannah as well!

Whew! It's pretty much over. Power back on, off for 5 1/2 Hrs. Freezers stayed cold so no loss of chow. I'm hard pressed to tell the difference between this Tropical Storm and a Hurricane. Wave action on the Pamlico River was 6-8 Ft, strong enough to toss a 80 LB rock up on the shore. On a humurous note, a deck chair that got sucked out to sea during Hurricane Isabel in 2003 was returned to me.
If this thing stays together  folks to the North should batten down the hatches.

when my dad was living he used to talk about "hard hearted hannah".

[faygo]

scorpio2. "Hard Hearted Hannah with a floy, floy."  Wonder why I would know those lyrics.

Faygo, Glad to hear you and Tanqueray "weathered" the storm out.

[scorpio2]

did everyone read the scam in online gambling on msnbc.com,interesting?

Moral of the story= Don't gamble online. It is a fixed game.
No patterns to detect or hot cycles to exploit.

It's great that Faygo and company survived the storm with minimal losses and the surprise return of a lawn chair. That's quite a tale in and of itself.    How wonderfully ironic.
