Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Getting Ready for Dennis...

[AMC74HORNET@xxxxxxxxx]

Luckily for me where I am in N.Y. we only catch the remnants of these
storms. We had steady rain all day yesterday from the remnants of a
tropical storm passing through. We have had more problems from the late
day thunder storms this past week with flooding and high winds and power
outages.

Ha ha ha, i met Dennis Gage of My Classi Car several times, at Kenosha one
year and another year at St. Louis nationals in 99. Real nice down to earth
fellow, but someone shoot me if I ever start wearing my pants up around my
tiddies like a 80 year old man! There was enough wax in that moustach to
make a few candles. But he is a really nice fellow if you ever get to meet
him, real down to earth, and well, likes AMC cars that is why they even get
exposure on that show.

Ya'll take care down there in FL, MS, AL, as while that storm has dropped to
125mph winds as I write this, but people many times get complacent and think
'well I been thru one or two' and I assure you, I have been thru 8 of them,
and countless depressions, storms, each one is different and you never know,
like those folks in Punta Gorda FL last year,
http://www.hurricanetrack.com/jpegs/charleybig.jpg
all the forecast said it was not going to even be near them, and would hit
Tampa, but it veered towards them and they were mostly unprepared and 12
people died and countless destruction from direct hit.

I didn't fully understand the NASA decision to not move the shuttle, to me,
that send the wrong message. Even if on opposite side of state! You would
think that even as we are STILL picking up peices of space shuttle Columbia,
and crew,  right north of me here, they would err on the side of caution!!

Here is a interesting GOES NOAA image:

And here is Ivan, of which those poor bastards are still trying to rebuild,
and Dennis is expected to hit same damned area:

Jeanne, which was one of the most powerful and the eye came ashore less than
5 miles from earlier hurricane:

Which was Francis:

I had a fellow who just won a ebay auction off me today call, as he lives in
Biloxi, MS and he said he was getting the hell out of there, he said he
would 'take his chances with flooding in Tennessee' as opposed to getting
possibly walloped by a hurricane, as he said he has been thru many the past
50 years and he mentioned one that hit that area and caused much
destruction, and for the like of me, can't remember it's name, possibly
Audrey? So ya'll take care ansd shelter.
