Charley in Charge

August 12th, 2004 / #friends, #hurricanes

After a day of everyone inwardly hoping that it is for real, that indeed the storm surge would be 10-14 feet in Tampa Bay, and that indeed they wouldn’t have to go to school tomorrow, their wish came true.

Now it’s amusing to see the same people who were hoping for Charley’s landfall having to evacuate. Right click, info, and viola! Complaints about the mandatory evacuation of 650,000 people in Pinellas and Hillsborough County alone litter the away messages of many of my low-lying friends in evacuation zones A, B, and C.

All I have to say is:
Ha ha!

Oh, and don’t die and all that jazz. I’ll see you all Monday, barring another treat from the tropics.

Sorry, but comments are closed. Some things are best said in a vacuum.

  • Who I Am

    I'm a nobody from Florida with things to say (sometimes).

  • What This Is

    This is a not-so-detailed account of my adolescence over the course of almost a decade. Here, I shared my thoughts about things of no real consequence while at the same time being reckless with semicolons and flowery language.

    I used this website to connect with folks before Facebook. Today, I sometimes chronicle interesting thoughts and observations I have. I don't update as much as I should.
