Reading the news, some articles are pointing out that only 3 category 5 hurricanes have hit the US in recorded history. Looks like this will hit as a category 5.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

"New Orleans has not taken a major direct hit from a hurricane since Betsy in 1965, when an 8- to 10-foot storm surge submerged parts of the city in seven feet of water. Betsy, a Category 3 storm, was blamed for 74 deaths in Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida.
Rappaport warned that Katrina, already responsible for nine deaths in South Florida as a mere Category 1, could be far worse for New Orleans.
"It would be the strongest we've had in recorded history there," Rappaport said. "We're hoping of course there'll be a slight tapering off at least of the winds, but we can't plan on that. ... We're in for some trouble here no matter what."
God help these people

Probably not. Winds of that speed will pick a person up and fling them god knows where. Andrew was a Cat 5, albeit the strongest storm ever recorded.Originally posted by The Emperor Fabulous

Bunnygrrl has a little survivors' guilt, since Katie was such a ***** storm when it hit here. I told her not to, since there are two more systems out there that look like they will develop into tropical cyclones in the next day and a half. Guess I'm not buying any perishable food.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

I hate that. Everytime you see them, the storm doesn't look that bad, and you wonder why they make such a big deal.Originally posted by The Emperor Fabulous

I wish I got to ride through a hurricane when I was in Mississippi, SC, or Mississippi. Unfortunately I missed all the hurricanes.Comment

Not only is it amazingly strong, it's also huge in size (as far as such storms normally come).

Good photo, Jonny.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
