Hurricane Irene

Well, thanks for that! A mental image I didn't need! :-) Glad you came through ok, Swampwalker. Haven't heard from Doug and Paul. We did get some water blowing in the entrance door that faces east, but no real damage. We're still on the generator, though, since about 10:30 Sunday. That's a good $40 per day in gas, but I'll take that over the flooding in Vermont any time.

I think that winter storm we got year before last was much worse in our area. But nothing like Andrew was down in Fla. ;-)

Hey Dan- Glad you're OK, but don't shoot the messenger. Take that up w Noble100!! Everything would be perfect here is my m-in-law wasn't coming tonight to stay til her power comes back (maybe a week!!!!!!!!!)

Swamp,
I had forgotten about that. Thanks for posting it again, we seem short on humor at Audiogon these days.

There was a time when several of us had foolish posts like that, all going on at the same time. Teasing is good thing among friends and people with similar interest, it keeps the "serious" things in perspective.

Well,after 68 hours my electricity is back on.I was fortunate that no damage occurred.
Others weren't as lucky.
Trelja,Great Ventnor sprinkler story.Probably one of my old neighbors.

Yes, electricity is back tonight! No phone service though and Internet is down so still no squeezebox music. Contents of frig gone. ... Sweetest sound tonight -a/c and the clunking of the ice maker.

I knew there was a reason speedos scared me!
