Firefighters have to take a special course in dealing with irony.

You're so wound up about the news coverage, you dismiss all the people who suffered losses from this storm that don't live on the Jersey coast.

Speaking of which, is this whole thing just God's wrath about Jersey Shore?

Sandy is payback for Snooki.

Fair enough.

I read a little snippet in the commuter paper on the Metro about another Nor'easter that's forming and is supposed to hit the mid Atlantic in the middle of next week.

Can't seem to find anything about it online right now, but boy, that would suck. That region doesn't really need any more wind and rain right now.

But all the science isn't it, glatt! It will take YEARS for all the science to be in and THEN we'll know if global warming is real.

Take care now.

I was reading that Hurricane Sandy could cost the US $50b. I'm wondering if it might be cheaper to outsource our hurricanes to China or India.

Sandy, and for that matter ALL extreme weather, is all the fault of GLBTQ.

And now you know why.

From the NY Times...
Quote:
Fifteen people in the Far Rockaway section of Queens and nine in Coney Island were charged with burglary and other offenses in connection with looting at stores. Among them was a 29-year-old woman who faced a weapons charge “after the safe she was carrying from a store was found to contain a firearm,” Mr. Browne said.
HA ha, karma's a bitch. This isn't stealing food for survival, no excuse for stealing a safe (probably a strongbox). She's going to find out the punishment for weapons charges in NYC, are a minimum of 3.5 years in jail.
