Pixies Civil Defense- DENNIS
 

With today’s events in London, hurricane Dennis has lost the spotlight as it went to a class 4 storm. Some of our Florida Pixies have more than one major point of activity to be paying attention to.

While the disgusting action of man-made tragedy is repulsive because they don’t HAVE to happen, the destruction our natural environment can reek is still present and as about as controllable, so we have to watch this too.

I hope this thread doesn’t become an important one in the next few days.

Dennis doesn't sound like someone you want to come calling.

He's gonna be nasty I fear.

Oh man, am I scared this time. I'm probably more terrified because of sitting thru Hurricane Ivan last year, just waiting all night long for my roof to rip off. We have plans to leave this time. I can not stay here again. We have contacted two different people asking could we come that way. One is North Carolina, the other is close to Daytona, Florida.
This morning the news said its a category 4, what strenghth it looses by being in Cuba it will gain when it reaches the warm gulf.
Everyone please be careful and touch base as you can!

(((((Iwm))))))

Drive safe....... Be safe! :hug: :x:

Take no chances...please be safe!

o, please be careful and smart... all of you in its path.

You know, IWM, I had this weird mis-read: at first glance, I saw "...touch yourself..."

Hey, if you have to buy the farm in a hurricane, you may as well enjoy the exit.

My wife & I recently bought a furnished home in W.Melbourne Fla,to winter
in.It is a very helpless feeling,knowing that you have to trust,your grounds-
keeper & maintenence man to close your awnings & watch over your
property.We vactioned there,a few weeks ago,& there is still alot of beachfront property,covered with blue tarps,because much of the damage,
hasn't been repaired yet! Irish

I went out today to wrap up some things at my office....I could not believe the traffic. I am glad people are taking precaution but it was horrible. All the gas stations were packed with cars lined out at the highway. It's gonna be a long ride north.

Mr. IWM just called....what normally takes him about 35 minutes to get home took him over an hour due to traffic just stopped.
:(
Be safe everyone!!!

(((((((IWM))))))))

I hope the drive isn't too bad.

My prayers are with everyone dealing with this right now.

When we were in Fla recently,I noticed that MOST of the beach routes,had
signs that said "Evacuation Route".That's something that you never see,in
the NE! Irish
P.S.Why do the people,keep rebuilding,in the same place?Why do the Tax-
Payers keep paying for it?I'm constantly amazed,at the way the Taxpayer
gets screwed.I guess that this, should be in Stephs "Pet Peeve" thread.

Almost a 5...geez when I'm done kissing my ass goodbye, any of you are welcome to :p :moon:

:yikes:
don't joke like that!
but i'll take you up on that :p :teleport: :shake: :slurp:

We're praying for all of you that could potentially be in the way of Dennis. Please, play it safe and let us know you're okay when the storm finally passes. Hopefully, it'll weaken some over Cuba and the that deeper waters are cool enough that it won't regain the strength it loses.

:hug:

Gas went up .10 in the past 24 hours here.

It went up $.25 (at a lot of the stations) here overnight and we're in a drought! Sheesh! :mad:

why isn't that considered price gouging?

cause *mumbles something about oil men and the government*

Hey!!!! I'm sure our political leaders are just as impacted personally by the cost of consumable commodities as the rest of us are.














Why do you think he's trying so hard to learn to ride a bike! :grin:

Roflmao Wi

Fucking Dennis!! :bang:


I will be just fine this time being in Orlando. My prayers are for you all that are in its direct path. Get out the plywood. :(

Just found out my mom is having to evacuate from Gulf Shores Ala.. Everyone be safe and be careful.

it looks nasssssssssssssty!!!!!!
here's the projected path.

the satellite photo was too big to upload.

here's a link http://www.weather.com/maps/news/at...lite_large.html

All you Florida pixies play it safe......... I don't know if I'll be around anymore because of the bullshit invoved here but I did care about you. :hug:

My fave site for hurricane info is http://www.boatus.com/hurricanes/tracking.asp

Here's another worrisome projected path...

How many states with Pixies ladies does that path take you through?

Several.

Think I'll make it to Florida before running out of steam?

I am predicting you'll hit a squall line in the mid-west and then build up pressure again as you near the tropics.

LMAO.... I don't squall.. I moan ;)

:faint: and I think it would make him get all disorganized and he'd end up stalling over the midwest for quite some time :D

:x:

Not yet... ;)

:D ;) LOL

Thanks Lil! I was reading through the thread hoping to find this or go hunting for where you posted it last year :)

Oh, and stay safe Florida Pixies
