Anyone else really worried about Gustav? I sure am. I'm definitely going to put my supplies on high ground and take my wax with me if we are forced to evacuate. Please just disappear. lol

Last night it looked like southwest Florida was out of the cone but now we are almost back in it. It's to early to tell where it's going to end up but it currently doesn't look good for La. We just went through a hurricane scare last week. Hopefully it won't be as bad as they predicting.

Well I know if there its a cat 2 or higher and heading anywhere close to NO, I'm heading out.

Man, I'm going be pissed if this thing destroys my house. I don't think I could go through that again.

Lance, I wouldn't get to bent out of shape yet. There's a lot of time for the storm to change paths. Best of luck. I hope you and your house stay safe.

Strange. When I lived in Miami and Ft Lauderdale it seemed that all the hurricanes hit the east coast of Florida. Since I've moved to Mobile Alabama they're all hitting the Gulf Coast.
Maybe I'm the hurricane magnet!

Be safe everyone, and remember that your life is a lot more important than your collection of Swissvax brushes!
