About to make direct hit to Jamaica. That island looks like it's going to get wrecked to pieces.

How will they be able to tell the difference?

Go eff yourself, Blarg.

Seriously, just an awful joke. But hey at least it wasn't another rambling, obtuse diatribe on something about which no one gives a [censored]. Step in the right direction I say.

Joker, if any of your ports are destroyed by the Hurricane, the ship will just stop somewhere else. Your trip should still continue.

The updated models have a very similar projected course except the CONU and it's pointed straight for The Big Easy.

Jerry Falwell said God still had it in for the heathens in New Orleans and is going to finish them off this time.

The Big Easy will be spared by all models.

I hope it doesn't go up to yes. I'd have to walk everywhere.

Doesn't look like it unless it follows the CONU model, which is the only one that is pointed at Houston. The rest of the projections have it staying out of the Gulf almost completely. Doesn't look like production or refining operations will be affected. Dancing at Senor Frog's may be affected, though.

somewhere my mom thought she heard that they were already evacuating some of the refineries but she might have heard that incorrectly.

Regardless, it can effect the barges that carry the petrol around too.
Not really sure. Guess we'll see.

I'm in Panama City, FL now which is way up in the panhandle. This one is thankfully going to miss us.
So we're still looking forward to our first official evacuation.
