barometric minute by minute pressure readings from a hurricane that's a week away, and will only affect a tiny portion of the country?

Sure, it sounds cold, but this place turns in to the NOAA Underground, and it's a fucking race to post the first updates :eyes:

Gimmie a goddamn break.

[DS1]

No shit.

[kick-ass-bob]

23. Well, You just created one extra thread....

Kind of like CNN doing a story on things that get too much coverage.

[ScreamingMeemie]

24. No....this, well this is an anti thread, and, therefore doesn't count

in total threadage. :hi:

[RedCloud]

26. Don't worry, if Wilma gets over 4,000,000 mph...

This Lounge forum will reset her automatically when noone is looking to 3,995,0000 like it does with our total messages count on a daily basis.

[Zomby Woof]

27. And none of those threads would be complete...

Without the obvious Flintstones references.

[AirmensMom]

28. News Flash!

If you live in that "tiny portion of the country" and you're sick of dodging the damn hurricanes and can't move yet ... and you've been seeing hurricane damage for two months, you can get pretty darn scared. I don't mind if a few people are scared with me. And I'm glad there are some DUers who do consider it a big enough deal to start a thread. Maybe if my house blows away and I'm underneath the rubble for two months before I'm discovered, you won't notice. Maybe someone will say, "Anyone heard from AirmensMom?" :shrug:

BTW, the hurricane is not a week away. Just saying.

[LaurenG]

29. No , no guarantee's

Guarantees are mostly useless anyway. Uselessness is a hobby and in the mind and heart of the "useless blow by blow" posters they/we may or may not consider it thus. Sorry... BTW (Convolutedness and poor sentence structure was meant as a joke).

[SOteric]

30. You mean this ~isn't~

a neocon plot to distract us from Karl Rove's indictment and Harriet Miers' confirmation hearings?

Huh.


Whodda thunk.
