This coverage is all about NYC. It's not here yet! It's still coming, and the subway isn't running!!!1111



Um. Guys?

You'd think the fucking world was coming to an end the way the talking heads go on about it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Aint that a fact.

So will this provide TV entertainment?

You might see lots of dead homos on Fire island.

:thumbsup:

Fuck you, you gypsy fuck.

Btw, you stink. Bathe more often. Kthxbye.
That was my first reaction as well, but then I realized that I misread his post, and that he wasn't talking about hobos.

It's fine here.  I guess God really does know his own.  And, between this and the earthquake, I'm reaping all the benefits.

I haven't even lost power, which is amazing. The lights flickered a few times but that was it - the sudden thunderstorm two nights ago (with 60mph gusts) brought down the power for a few hours.

My house is also up in a hilly area so there's no danger of flooding. People in low-lying areas aren't going to be so lucky. It's been a constant, steady rain and the creek that runs by my house is starting to overflow it's banks. It usually only does that when we get a sudden downpour and can't drain out fast enough.

I expected dead homos and hipsters floating in the water when I woke up.  :mad: New York is only moderately moist.

They always exaggerate this shit.  If they didn't, and it turned out to be worse than they thought, heads would roll.

A lot fewer people would tune in if the news just reported the news.  The news has to be bigger than life, so people get either a real thrill or a vicarious one.

It could be worse.  You could be in the UK.
