Hurricane durlx....



The neighbors in the big house had a professional company come over and board up the house...

I, of course. wouldn't bother: House too small, windows too small and not enough funds to hire butch talent to hammer precise plywood to the windows. And the more they cover their big expensive and crashy windows, the safer I am.

I posted quite a long post about the hurricane on my message board. Spent a long bit of the evening in chat with tejaz, trip, pebs, MQ and a lot of others including Noah, who was there for a bit.

Oh, and earlier luca called and we talked for a long time, which is good because I love to talk to luca...



Anywho, possums. This is what it looked like Wednesday afternoon.




I had to stay awake you know... one can't nod off during an enormous tropical storm like this one, this crazy Isadore! Such a wet and messy storm; over 20 inches of rain in 24 hours, more to come. And a city-wide curfew was called just as I was going to go over to the Phoenix!

At any rate the storm passed without doing much damage and the weather is now lovely sunny and cool. We were very, very lucky.
