Thanks guys. I work at a grocery store, so I'm gonna stockpile some stuff in the back and buy it just before close after the crowds have left (we were already sold out of a lot of things when I went in yesterday, but we've got a double load coming in today to accommodate, so hopefully I should be good there), and see if I can't get some gas on the way home (all of the stations on my way home were empty already when I got off yesterday). I'm keeping an eye on things, though. If I have to leave, I already plan on taking backroads the way up, which is how I usually travel anyways, and see if I can't avoid some of the traffic that way.
Honestly, I'd like to just leave now, just to be sure, but I've gotta be at work, where I'm in a management position, and I'd really like to still have a job when I get back. :\
Bonkers.
Think about the most cutting edge technology today. And think about third world countries that don't have technology that we consider a commodity, phones, electricity, indoor plumbing.... Then think about countries like the US, and we fly planes through Hurricanes because we can. Bonkers.
We are approaching the beginning of a new season of the Fantasy Movie League that is played in the Off-Topic Forum. We currently have space for new players if anyone would like to jump in. I can accommodate at least 2 new players.
There is a long list of rules located in the first post of the Fantasy Movie League thread. But basically, your sole action would be to draft 9 films that will be released during the months of October-March that you think will make the most money at the box office (domestically).
If you'd like to play, visit the Fantasy Movie League thread by September 12th (5:00 PST) and post something along the lines of "I'm in."
Hurricane Irma destroyed 95% of the buildings in Barbuda and now with Jose about to hit it, the entire island is being evacuated. I don't see how the state of Antigua and Barbuda can continue after this.
Wow. I just saw that both are Cat 4s now.
Katia is the one gathering strength. It just got upgraded to a 2.
Honestly don't know what's about to happen in southern Mexico. They're being hit by a tsunami and a hurricane simultaneously from both sides. Geez.
They just had a 8.1 earthquake too.
Yeh that's what triggered the tsunami.
I'm in Tampa. Haven't evacuated. :\
To update, I am currently on the road heading northbound now. And I finally caught up with northbound traffic at that, as you can see by my posting here. :p
Good that you're heading out. It's heading for the west coast now.

No job is worth getting weather-murdered. Glad youre getting out.
Yeah, definitely feel a lot safer where I'm at now. Selfishly speaking though, now I'm just hoping I'll still have a home to go back to. :\
So glad you're safe TGM.
Pasco County police have had to warn residents that shooting the hurricane won't stop it or change its course.
Apparently it's a surprisingly widespread problem and has even gone viral with people posting "#SHOW IRMA WHO SHOT FIRST!"
What the fuck, America?
Meg, it's not America. It's a bunch of dummies. Stop with the labeling.
Figured it was obvious the last line was in jest.
Guess I'll use a smilie next time?
