Egypt me again - no one to trust around here. If you get a chance, Dubai it from a more honest salesman. Now, we're closing early today so I can get Tibet and take a nap.

Austria was Hungary, took a bit of Turkey, dipped it in Greece, cooked it in Japan and ate it off China.
That has been stuck in my brain since I was a small child.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Hurricane Hermine made landfall on the gulf side of Florida last night; it will be headed up the South East coast of the U.S. over the next couple of days.
I have a co-worker affected in Florida and one that will be affected in North Carolina.

It has already weakened to "tropical Storm".

Yes, winds under 75 mph mean 'tropical storm'; it doesn't significantly reduce the impact though. It's like... would you rather be hit by a full size pickup or an SVU? Either way, it's gonna hurt.

 Precisely. It will be dumping inches of rain as it moves through causing flooding in some areas for sure. Not as bad as a hurricane but can still do a lot of damage.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Yeah - but the real mischief's from the storm surge on the coasts and major runoff causing rivers to overflow their banks inland. That is so damaging, that, in a nutshell, it's why no private insurance carrier underwrites flood insurance; it's all through FEMA.
Trees blow down but the damage is only a local mess - floods ravage hundreds - thousands - millions.
I also think it's coming to get me

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean a tropical storm isn't out to get you!

I'd agree, except after it runs up the coast it's heading back out to sea. The current predictions are for it to more-or-less stall south of my island. Waiting. Watching. Planning.
So - who else could it be targeting?

Technically, people can be replaced too... It's just that the replacement is never quite the same, and it takes a LOT longer.
Ok, joking aside... Got family south of Sarasota and a friend in Tampa... The latter was getting hit pretty hard last night, but south of Sarasota mostly dodged the bullet.

I'm not sure. I think it was Bill Cosby who would threaten his kids when they got out of line. He would tell them, "I can make another one that looks just like you."

The silicon chip inside his head
Gets switched to overload.
And nobody's gonna go to work today,
He's going to make them stay at home.
And his boss doesn't understand him,
He always said he was as good as gold.
And he can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to crash
The whole day down.
The c# code is kept so clean
As it sends to a waiting form.
His mouse feels so shocked,
Keyboard's world is rocked,
And their compiler turns to
Their own little app.
Sweet VB ain't so peachy keen,
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat.
They can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need?

Note at all!
1) They cost too much and I earn too few.
2) They are so big to be useless as phones or tablets and too small to be real computers.

I have to disagree with this, I have been using Note since they started and love them and use them as my primary phone. I have big hands, so they are not "so big".... that's what she said .

I have small hands, to the point I find straining to use 5" screens, so that's where our differences lie in this case! Also I like my devices to be small, I never bough an MP4 player or the big MP3s with screens preferring microplayers like the Creative Zen.
