Okay, after Ibby's information, definitely saying no to George Clooney. That man has no luck when it comes to storms.
I'll do better with a windup radio, lanterns, water, and homemade soup. Add some canned goods + can opener, and a few Nuwick candles to heat it all ...

Sad: your fiancee leaves you and moves into a beautiful 11th floor condo on the waterfront with the credit score you helped her recover
Not so sad: her second month there, the area is put under state of emergency and she has to evacuate. |

Poetic justice: her condo is trashed by the storm and she has to seek new shelter using a credit score that reflects her actual financial behavior over the past few months, rather than the score you helped her get.

The old Karma bus eventually rolls by each of us.
Stay safe, ya'll!

Sandy is on the news around the world.
As a hurricane ... actually not too powerful. But the way it looks like interacting with a nor-easter storm could really amp it up just as it makes landfall, which it looks like doing smack on the densely populated north east. For added fun, I've read there are some odd jet stream patterns which could slow Sandy's movement and almost lock it in place over the north east. For even more fun, the full moon is in a day or two, meaning king tides. Add that to storm surges and wave walls, and sheeee-yiiit, this thing could make a mess. Good luck all.

Ha! See how MY area of Ohio is totally out of the possible power outage range?
Betcha I lose power. I just betcha. It's interesting how far up in Maine it's going. I'll bet people who live that far out in the wilds of Maine don't give a power outage a thought. It's Deliverance country out there anyway.
