Tropical Storm Meh

It's raining down here. It's raining quite a bit, and quite steadily. And that's it. Tropical Storm Lee is a big yawner, and a great opportunity to curl up with popcorn and some good movies. Just so you know, since the national news media seems to be desperately looking for something to be hysterical about.

We're not "suffering" down here, and people aren't "terrified". As far as I can tell, people cleaned out the grocery stores of beer, chips, hot dogs, hamburger, and other Labor Day/Hurricane Party supplies. Unlike when they are actually stocking up for a dangerous hurricane, when there's a run on batteries, bottled water, canned food, plywood & duct tape. So yeah.

Tropical Storm Meh.

Yeah, my Dad lives in Mississippi, and I haven't heard a peep out of him phone-wise, so it can't be that bad. I think the news is all riled up because they had two major tropical weather storms that didn't give them any of the headlines they really wanted. Even Irene was less than expected.
