My guardian angle is at a bar drinking bourbon.

That's pretty obtuse

I've been checking the surf cams all day.  It looks like the forerunners of the Irma swell are just now starting to fill in.  A bit too late to go out at this point, but tomorrow is shaping up to be a pretty fun day of surf, and Saturday looks to be very, very good.

Don't be cross. We'll circle back to the original point.

A direct Cat 3-4 hit on Boca looks very possible, better than 50/50 at this point.

this is the very info I needed.  thanks.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

That's a good plan. What's a good liquor to not-give-a-shit-about-anything drink through a hurricane? I'd like one that drowns out family, kids, bad news, and "Did I ever tell you the story" type noise.

1.  Jameson
2.  Jack Daniels
3.  Kraken Black Spiced Rum
4.  Old Smuggler Scotch (the first glass is a bit rough, but it gets better from #2 on)

I'm waiting to hear back from a friend who lives in Anguilla, hoping her family is safe. I saw some pictures on the news today and the place is really devastated. Apparently their local radio, even the internet is out, although wireless smart phones are working. :(

Stay safe all of you in Florida, Alabama, and southern Georgia.

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat
