    Default To my East Coast brothers and sister

    You will all be in my thoughts and prayers during this storm. I hope all of you prepared well for Sandy. I've been running around like crazy trying to be ready. I hope I've done enough to minimize the damage. God bless and stay safe everyone.

    Yesterday, I picked everything up at least 15" off the floor, or above the basement door level. In the process, I whacked my eye with the end of my mountain bike handlebars and my left eye is doing this: I now have a cornea abrasion and some antibiotic eye drops. The only thing left down there is if the power's out and it's flash flooding in town, I'm pulling the gun off the oil burner and cracking the back door.

    We didn't really rush out and buy a bunch of stuff. Authorities are saying if the power (high probability) goes out, that we're supposed to boil water.

    I was at work today for about 1 hour, then came home to go to the eye doctor, and everyone else who was there said they were leaving at lunch, so as not to get caught on the way home with trees and shit down. Tomorrow is probably going to be shitcanned for everyone.

    It's been raining, I'd say light to moderate since last night, and now the wind is starting to pick up.

    Rich, what are you worried about in Key West anyway?

    Just starting here. I'm expecting wind gust of up to 60mph and a few inches of rain. I live 40mi from the ocean so I don't think a storm surge is an issue. Power will definitely go out, though. Just a matter of time and how long. Wife works at the hospital. Sick people don't take the day off, so her getting to and from work is a concern. I'm a closet survivalist so I got more than enough gear, food, water, gas, and kerosene to get by for a while. Those folks on the Jersey shore are screwed, however. Storm statistics have already exceeded Irene and the blow hasn't even come ashore yet.

    Stay safe guys, hopefully it won't be as bad as they're reporting it may be.
