NOAA to East: Beware of coming 'Frankenstorm

[CountDeMoney]

Electric company's been scrambling to replace rotting poles, trick or treating has been moved up because of the impending storm, and there's a general "batten down the hatches" vibe going on down here.

Yeah, the utilities have already started the pre-positioning, moving to staging areas, and tree trimming along the major lines.

But hey, at least I won't have to work the duration of the storm.  So I've got that going for me.

WHy are you taking an exam, AGAIN?

I'm an actuary without designation.  That's what we do, take exams twice a year and typically fail them.

Why don't you get a designation?  Or maybe if you are really brave you could be an actuary mentioned in dispatches.

Well, passing exams is how you get a designation.

Well, if you take them twice a year, how come you don't have a designation?

Okay, so are you some kind of unlicensed actuary, operating on the frontiers of the law?

You don't need a designation to work as an actuary, as long as your boss has a designation and can sign off on your work.  However, for obvious reason, needing a boss to sign off on your work cuts down on your career progression opportunities.

[Tonitrus]

I want to do some regular grocery shopping...but the panic-mongerers are probably out in droves today.

[Darth Wagtaros]

Yes. Even up here it was a crazy scene, and we are getting an inch or so of rain.

They put ohio in the 'possible power outage' category. The wolf's lair is on YELLOW alert.

Whazz that mean? You lock yourself in your den and watch back to back to back episodes of My Little Pony and Care Bears until the storm abates?

I check the generator. Check supply of batteries. All devices are charged to 100%. Coolers are readied to receive Alexander's medicine. Pop tart supply is put in. Meowjager Drut is placed in the garage.

Wife's vibrator's batteries are changed.
