Good plan! Don't jinx anyone else. :eek:

I was just making a little joke about my bad luck. Louisiana cannot handle any hurricanes... ever. Our coastline would be destroyed even further. Believe me, I don't want a hurricane. Just wanted to clear that up.

I agree... monster storms to watch


Joyce
Helen
Florence
Isaac
Nadine
Rafael
Tony
Alpha



I would go with Isaac just because of 1900. Florence is another one that begs to be a major as well as Helen. For some reason the name Helen reminds me of something evil....lol


lol, Hell (Hel ene) understandable.


You know I didn't think of that until I saw this specific post.
