Right In Florida

Motto: This is what happens when Insanity and Banality come together.

Name:
Location: North Central Florida, United States

I'm an aging boomer, white male (cue scary music); not religious, mostly conservative. Married to the same woman forever. No kids-by choice (I believe in personal choice in most areas of life). Voted mostly Republican until November 2000 when the national Democrats tried to steal the election in Florida. I promised to never again vote for another Democrat; kept that promise to date.

Hurricane Rita (and Ophelia)

Two hurricanes that affected Florida since Katrina were Ophelia (about 2 weeks ago) and Rita (kicked the keys around a couple of days ago. Ophelia was just an offshore nuisance and rain event for central and north Florida, which I found out first hand when I had to conduct some business in Volusia County. It made for dreary and dangerous driving, but that's about it.

Well, Ophelia went on to scare the Carolinas and points north.

And Rita scared the Florida Keys, especially Key West, but wasn't too dangerous. Now Rita has already caused significant damage to Texas and Louisiana (again!) and the eye hasn't yet made the coast.

Hang on friends in both states. This will be bad.
