Sounds like the world is about to end (again) on the East Coast of the US....  :o  I've already received 4 "work" emails about preparedness 'n stuff. However not one of them mentions the possiblility of the guvmint being closed on Monday  >:(

My preparations involve figuring out ways to keep the wife from freaking out: "no, we don't need to hard boil all the eggs to keep them from going bad when we loose power", "yes, we have enough water to cross the desert by foot", "yes, we have enough batteries and candles", "no, let's park the car as far from trees as possible".... turn out the only thing we were out of were condoms, but as long as I can play Xbox we wont need them....  [laugh]

Jokes aside I hope everyone is prepared and no-one will have any problem. Oh, and I found this video of Irene from the ISS: impressive!

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Personally, I'm planning to go riding so I can get a shirt that says:

I RODE IRENE!!!

Bike should be okay, it's out in the brick shed, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do about my car.  It's parked right under a tree.  Not a good idea...

My bike and car are all in an underground parking garage, so that's all I needed to be worried about.  I have a buddy who keeps his SV outside though.  I told him that's probably not a good idea this weekend.

I've got plenty of ammo.  If things get bad, I'll survive off the supplies my neighbors bought.
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

And when those run out, you can survive off your neighbors!  [evil] [laugh]

I picked up two boxes of 3" saboted 12g slugs, and my generator started. Cows out back if need be.

I can neither confirm nor deny any instance of those thoughts crossing my mind...

I don't generally hoard things, but my friends at Georgia Arms have some good bargains on canned heat: http://georgia-arms.com/bulkquantityammunition-cannedheat-1.aspx, so I don't think I'll have problems either. ;D

I prepared by going to Indy for the GP. No Irene here. Did sit next to the table of umbrella girl "talent" this evening. Freakin' hilarious. High maintenance x 18. Lots of CLS.

Haha!

His bike should be fine as long as he doesn't cover it. Mine will be outside 'cause the shed is full of other crap that's more likely to go airborne. It's lodged between the house and the junky old Saab so it won't tip over.

Damn chestnut oaks better keep it together, though...
