I was on a conference call with a client's PM from New Jersey once. God, was she annoying. Every second word was "like" and the way she spoke made her sound like a vacuous bimbo.

It looks bad.  Hopefully, the evacuation and the preparations will be enough.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

Indeed. Sandy is continuing to gain speed and is now at 90mph!

So if I read this right, they are asking people to get to of town yet the public transportation many depend on in the big cities was shut down early to prevent more damages. How can people get out then?

Well at least in NYC, mandatory evacuations for low-lying areas was ordered well in advance of public transport closing...and the latter was also warned about way in advanced of the decision being made.

Also in NYC, they weren't suggestion evacuation of city but just certain districts so presumably one could easily still walk to a shelter/friend's place.

Well thankfully we have a wealth of disaster movies that tell us how it should be done.

It'll be interesting to see how bad this gets...so far, about as bad as a typical fall storm for Seattle.

should I get emergency milk if I don't buy milk normally? Why is milk always on the list?

Yes, it is your duty to be part of the problem, never the solution. :)

WHAT ABOUT THE MILK?! You need milk to spoil in your fridge for the full experience.
