Texas spawned the Bush Family, but I won't hold it against all of the rest of the residents. Hope y'all make it through okay.
I've become so blase about this whole hurricane season that I've actually felt a little left out. Last year, the hurricanes were old hat by November. Mother Nature is probably now going to strike me down. Rita has that otherworldly "eh, whatever" feeling to me. Strange. Media overkill, I think, with Katrina. It was like that here last year. They overstimulate the public with images, pleas, and tears to the point that I end up feeling desensitized. Happened with the tsunami and The War On Terror, too. I end up feeling bad or concerned for awhile and then irritated when all of my senses are bombarded by reports of the "horrors" and "devastation". It's too much sometimes.
Hey, Clavus? Don't mess with Florida!
