    If Irma ramps back up to Category 4 she could cause some massive damage.

    Especially since they originally had it hitting the East coast and now likely the West.

    I'm gonna get fucked. Naples (below Ft Meyer)

    If you have zero skills and a box truck you could make a quick killing by offering to fix pool lanias (screened in pools). Those suckers gonna get smoked.

    The waiting list will be long for established companies.

    That's just a start.

    Another weird trick I've only seen in Florida is the installation of a brace inside your garage door that anchors into the cement floor and roof header. Most garage doors aren't too rugged and are just a giant sail.

    I have hurricane shutters over every opening and a generator.

    We will see.

    Stop making fun of Larry. That snowstorm & his death-defying drive in it was very scary & probably scarred him for life.

    Get well soon Larry.

    We live in Oldsmar which is literally on the northern tip of Tampa Bay...we are evacuation level B so we are out of state at a "secret location" now. Hopefully we can go back Tuesday or Wednesday and I will post some pics of the damage if there is anything interesting. We're not boarded up or sandbagged (when we left FL Friday morning we still thought it was going up the east coast) and we have a pretty flimsy pool screen so it seems like damage is likely.

    Did Florida not vote for a revolting sex pest who said climate change is a hoax created by the Chinese?

    So can somebody tell me is the hurricane living up to the hype? I can;t tell from newscasts what the hell is going on. Reporters just keep making it sound scary but no actual reports of what's going on anymore.

    Still alive. Lost power a few times already but it keeps popping back on.

    On and off winds going now. My uneducated weather ass thinks it was the "outer bands" that have hit us the last 12 or so hours and we are in a gap before the main body of the storm hits us in another 4 hours.

    Neighbor lost a palm tree overnight but there doesn't seem like any real damage yet.

    The US will be a better, although less entertaining place once Florida is wiped off the map.

    I'm up in Boston.

    The person we hire to look after the house has bailed.

    The house is inland about 6 miles.

    It's like watching the jailers build a gallows for your execution at sunset. Nothing you can do.

    We have one of those little lakes that every community has around here. It's about 30 yards from the back door. That's not gonna be good.

    I had booked a flight down for 2 weeks beginning Oct 3. It's one of my favorite regular vacations - watching playoff baseball at night - restaurants, beach & boating before the unwashed masses of snowbirds come down for the winter - streets turn into something like LA. Now it looks like I'll be working or looking to contract a bulldozer.

    Pooh, is nearby. He used to have some other property here too. I dunno if he sold them. He has a business exposure too. I'll try to raise him and get him to post. There is half a chance he is gonna ride it out. He ain't that bright.
