Irma Thoughts and Memes
As you can imagine, Irma is the main topic at my office in Central Florida.

Everyone was hoping the storm would turn right and go into the Atlantic and never touch land - that's not going to happen.

Everyone in a given area then hopes the storm doesn't hit them directly, which raises a question that if you wish/pray (inset another term) for it not to hit your area, does that essentially mean you are hoping someone else is affected? Not necessarily, but you see where I'm going with this thought.

Which reminds me of, the late, great, George Carlin and his NIMBY theory...for those not familiar NIMBY stands for "Not In My Back Yard" -- everyone agrees that we need a new restaurant/road/school, etc. but don't build it in my back yard...

During good times and bad, you need to breathe and have a sense of humor.

Enjoy this meme and when reading it, do it in the voice they use for Super Bowl MVP.

Unfortunately you're right, it doesn't look good...the waiting is the hardest part as it's not expected be hear for another 48 hours.

Thank you...I know you want me to evacuate, I've never evacuated and am in, what I consider, a safe location. I will keep you updated and will be sending positive thoughts to your sister.
