Shorthanded67 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 Don't let JR lie, he's going to loot the magic kingdom. I always thought he was an Epcot Center kind of guy. I think it's automatic one-way ticket to hell if you loot Disney property. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 Now that Loki and Bartelby are done with Mooby, I think Disney is next. Seriously though, this storm could drop a boatload of rain on Florida. JR did you get the Ark finished in time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LkptTiger 1 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 Well, at least you have the stones to stay. Just about everybody else in the state is gone. Anybody see the news? It's a never-ending line of cars out of Florida. Good luck, JR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 My dad's in Clearwater with his GF right now. They took her son down to Orlando and they're supposed to fly out of Tampa on Sunday morning. I'll send him over for some cigars and hooch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LkptTiger 1 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 My dad's in Clearwater with his GF right now. They took her son down to Orlando and they're supposed to fly out of Tampa on Sunday morning. Hell of a time to go for a vacation, huh? Well, hopefully Francis doesn't totally ruin their stay. Something tells me that their flight may be delayed, though.

JR Boucicaut 3803 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 Things are going okay - never lost power. However the storm is so slow it's gonna be an all-day event. I'm going out of my mind because I feel claustrophobic - I wanna go for a drive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3803 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 That message above was the last thing I sent before my cable modem died out. I got it back a few min ago. I never lost power or satellite dish, so I was good in that aspect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackhawks4ever 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 So JR hows the damage???? Don't suppose you came across a witch pinned under a house wearing a pair of ruby slippers ( or a pair of Vapor XXX skates in my size)??? If you've burned through all your Partagas, I can send you a couple of Padron Anniv to tied you over!!!! Good luck to you man!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 JR, same with me, never lost power or DirectTV, but I did loose the cable modem, I had to use a dial up to do a fantasy football draft Sunday. Nothing too much to say able the west coast, alot of wind, some rain but not much damage. Oh well, time to go put the boards on the windows for the next hurricane that will be here in a few days. Say hello to Ivan !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wristshot19 0 Report post Posted September 8, 2004 No boards on the house yet. I will probably evaluate what I am going to do about Ivan over the weekend. Too soon to tell if lumber is necessary. Got a friend going crazy with hanging wood all over his house and so far it has been a waste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
