I'm A HURRICANE!!!

[vampstko]

we are currently under mandatory evac..we have no place to go though..we boarded up all the windows with plywood..i go a battery backup for may computer amd samdbagged everything...we are expecting a cat 3 hurrricane to smack us gfood

[nordberg]

what is your house made of, and what's it sittin' on?
we live on a marsh, and our house is about 7-feet off the ground on concrete pilings.
that means we leave when the order comes - i don't trust this treehouse.

don't forget to use the phrase 'honker down' a lot like the guys on TWC.
and post pics here!

That is soooo cool!

Good luck vamps, I have no idea what it's like to be anywhere near a hurricane (thankfully) but I gather it's not the most pleasant of events. Hope you back yard don't suffer too much damage

i'd like to think so.
here is the view from my back porch:



that water is sea level, and my backyard is at about 4 inches.
we are about 4 miles from the beach as well.

Hold on tight, vamps.

Good luck, buddy.

[Olly K]

Woah! Nords thats awesome!
I would show you the view from my back porch, except you wouldn't be able to see much through the rain

[nordberg]

ha! well, it's been raining here since thursday thanks to Bonnie, and Charley is on the way.

they should have made the 'C' storm Clyde...that would have been way cooler.

I will sit in front of your webcam, with some beer ... "Go Charley, go!"

[ViRGo_RK]

I think he should make a last transmission.

[Subway]

Oh yeah vamps ... send all website account informations of your sites my way before the hurricane hits ... just in case.

I would doubt the phone lines,cable and power will be up still. Ours go out when its only 15mph winds.

[nordberg]

vamps is going to get slammed - this is a serious storm.

I've been thinking the same thing since they started talking about this; how could you not go to Clyde from Bonnie? That's like saying "Thelma and Leslie".

Meterology is a serious business, not an opportunity to play funny games with the naming convention of major storms.

Pfft, what am I saying - of course it should have been Clyde, anybody can see that.



Just goes to show that it's far from a horizonatal career move, meterologist to comedian.

[vampstko]

WASSSSSSUUUPPPP

oh getting windy.. couldn't get the stupid webcam to work streaming from my server..figures i can't even install linux..

[webprodesign]

I'm north of you, we're outside of ceder key which is now under mandatory evac also, so we'll probably get hit just as hard as you, maybe a little bit less though. BRING IT ON!!

[orgyborgy]

Good luck guys

[nordberg]

just upgraded to a category 4 - 145MPH+ winds.

damn, ya'll better honker down!

[TallGuyLittleCar]

Honker down? you need to get on the tallest part of your house and go Lt Dan on charlie's ass.


Hey Vamps where abouts in tampa are you? Be safe.
