Our news said this morning that it was a pretty good rattler..lots of rain and winds, but they said this morning that everyone is okay, not one fatality.
Yeah, I was watching that last night, as well as c-span, Wondering the same thing
Thanks for asking, Mom and Dick fared pretty well. The worst thing that happened to them is that they lost power.
She called me yesterday afternoon to let me know that the storm had passed and that they were ok.
Thier neighbor lost 1/2 of thier roof.
They live right on the water in a retirement community and the storm surge filled the canal, but didn't climb up onto the yard.
Harlingon (spelling?) made out a lot worse from the looks on the news.
I think the bridge to the Island is reopened now.
New subject:
This is the 7th time that I have been called to Jury duty in the past eight years.
Sitting here waiting for my name to be called and I need to get back to work!
They tell me it is a "random selection" but I am starting to seriously dis-believe that statement.
Every time I get called onto the jury panel, I say something that one of the lawyers doesn't like and I get excused.
The last one was for a car wreck victim that was sueing the guy that hit him for damages that "might happen in the future".
Well I told the panel that I cannot in good conscience award any money for somthing like that and they let me go.
The one before that was for a "police brutality" case and I told everyone in the courtroom that ther is certain behaviour that attracts the police officer's attention in the first place. With that in mind, "Your Honor" I see no reason for this whole hearing to be taking place at all!
The plaintiffs all turned around and glared at me.
The defendant, a police officer, simply sat there, quietly.
They let me go.
