[Please forgive, I'm up to check out the radar on a possible tropical system coming my way. Clearly more than ever I'm not in my right mind.]

Good luck with the weather whaleshaman

Be safe.

Tropical Depression Three seems to be headed my way after all, with probably a lot of water falling out of the sky and some wind, depending on which side the storm rolls by. It's always unpredictable [which is the most predictable thing about tropical systems, IMO].

But the gutters are clean and the booby hatches are battened down, potted herbs tucked under the eaves in the darkness--to the music of the night: Save the basil!

And hope, I said HOPE as in HOPEY HOPE, a dead limb doesn't blow down on the car or the roof or my head. But it could be worse--I could be a 5-year old with a broken leg and the wrong kind of insurance. I suppose Michael Kinsley would tell him to just get over it.

Must have been a trouser snake

you're okay, will you?

Best of luck.

The massive thunderstorms and a tornado shut down the computer and the electricity some of today--it's all fine now, but it was noisy. Flashlights and books helped, and telling stories.

Yoiks, sounds like you were in the eye of the hurricane

I'm happy to hear you came through it. Speaking of stories, here's one from a master, about the loss of hope--enjoy, you earned it, and thanks for the well wishes:

Having actually plumbed in a washer, I don't believe this

By Elliott Lake on Sat, 2008-07-19 22:10

. . . but I would believe it was a "prank" by her suddenly EX boyfriend.

A snake that size does not fit through the drain lines that come out of a washer, nor around the tubing bends inside and the perforated metal basket.

Either this woman has absolutely no idea how plumbing works, and that snakes actually breathe air and not water, or she was enjoying a little publicity.
