Hurricane Hype

First an earthquake, now a hurricane. As Irene makes it way up the east coast (now in the Carolinas), the media hype is at full steam.  Grocery stores are supposedly packed, and evacuations are being called for, even in New York. I hope Pepco can do its thing, and I hope that the storm tracks further to the East.  But what a week. I predict the climate change-ologists will be bitching about how this is all Republicans fault in no time.

I do pray that our friends in the Outer Banks, particularly Ocracoke, play it safe. For as much as the media is hyping this, it really is better to evacuate.
