Charley looks worse on TV than in real life

To hear the TV news crews, we’re all under 40 feet of water and expecting more. But Charley’s weakening, and hopefully by the time it gets here in another couple of hours, it should be a little less of a threat. We haven’t seen much of anything around here. I think it had enough fun ripping up the poor people in Port Charlotte and Fort Myers.

I’m going to go try to watch the Olympics. If the power goes out or anything, I’ll blog about it by candlelight. Deal?

    So will Whiny be on the treadmill-generator when you blog by candlelight?

    Or is your notebook all charged up? (With battery back-up for the cable modem, I suppose….)

    Like I didn’t take enough yesterday right? Here is my freezer full of ice in case the power went out we’d be able to keep it and the fridge cool for a few hours. And here is the junk…

    **UPDATE** I just talked to Solonor by phone. The emergency blogging sytem does work!!
    He and his family lost power last night around 10pm and still don’t have it back yet. He said there is very little yard debree. A few trees here and there and fence came down so all his neighbors could see all the junk in his back yard. (heh) But he said he and his family are all fine and not to worry. He will post as soon as the power comes back on and not to worry. They are good.
