Damn you, Jim Cantore!
Here’s a question for you: Which comes first, the hurricane or Jim Cantore?
Hmmm…..
I mean, Cantore gets there before the hurricane…. but the hurricane is already going there… If I was the governor of Florida, I’d stop that bastard at the Florida-Georgia border.
Friggin’ hurricane magnet, if you ask me…
Girl Tries to Flee Hurricane on Her Bike
A little girl flees hurricane Dean on her bike? Yes, it’s true.
In Deland, police stopped a girl who had been missing for some time and was last seen riding her bike. When questioned, she told them she was scared about Hurricane Dean hitting Florida and was riding back home to Ohio, where the family had recently come from.
How sad is this? We’ve scared the poor the children here in Florida sooo much that she tried to leave pedaling her little bike out of the state.
Hurricane Information
I used to maintain a blog for hurricane tracking. Honestly, I hated it. I felt ‘obliged’ to keep up with it during storms. When this year’s first storm hit, all I could think about was “not again…”.
I set it up originally because I was tired of hunting for information every time there was a storm, so I wanted to aggregate all of my links and information into one place. As more sites add RSS feed, though, I’ve been tracking information through my bloglines account. As I started cutting-and-pasting things into blog posts for the hurricane blog, I said to myself, “Self, you’re stupid.”
So, I deleted it.
If anyone reading this needs information, here’s an RSS feed for the National Hurricane Center:
http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/index-at.xml
Use it to subscribe in your favorite RSS reader. I use bloglines.
As I come across more feeds, I’ll post them here. But, I’m not going to be keeping up with storm information, nor littering the sidebars with linkrolls to weather sites. I just don’t have the interest in maintaining and keeping up with it all anymore, and I like for blogging to be a hobby I love, not a chore to which I am obligated.
