Like its French name indicated, Henri sent Florida a message........

"I surrender"

Seriously, looks like we will be spared all but a storm surge, and that may
not be too bad....

There was a Simpsons episode where Lisa became Joan of Arc and was to
lead the French to victory over the English.

At the supper table Homer argues with Lisa saying, "Victory? We are
French. We don't even have a word for that"


Lucky this time. A few years ago a storm not all that much weaker
flooded Courtney Campbell and a lot of neighborhoods. This area is
long overdue to take a major ass whipping from a storm. IMO, it won't
be pretty when it happens as no one has any experience to speak of
dealing with the impact. Picture all of South St. Pete trying to
evacuate for one.

"Hey, what's that big dome thing up ahead? Is that a stadium?

I didn't know we had one of those!

Major League baseball????!!!

Really?

Well, I'll be damned! When did that happen?"

Having been to see a game there, not yet. Guess I was
spoiled growing up and watching the Big Red Machine...
