Hi Dave,

 DD> Dodged that bullet then.

 RH> This time around, yes. Located where we are, we usually don't get major
 RH> effects from a coastal storm, usually more rain (which produces local
 RH> flooding) and wind. Last fall's Helene gave us rain, but not as bad as
 RH> even a couple of hours west of us.

 DD> Sometimes when ahurricane hits along thee Gulf of Mexico - like
 DD> Katrina in '05,it will come right up theMississippi and give us an
 DD> unwelcome bath.. And spawn tornadoes. Eeeeeewwwww.

We were in Hawaii when that hit--but out there at one point one summer,
we had 5 hurricanes coming at us. There was enough ocean between us and
them that they all fizzled out before hitting land.


 DD> 8<----- TRIM ----->8

 DD> I looked at the expected track for Erin. You're gonna get wet. Bring
 DD> your umbrella.

 RH> Actually, not really. Looking at the expected path, it's supposed to
 RH> turn eastward and not even give us much, if any, rain.

 DD> As I said above. Climate is what we expect. Weather is what we get.

 RH> Right now it's a warm (mid 80s), somewhat muggy day. Not much rain
 RH> expected this week, even with the hurricane.

 DD> We're due for abreak in the temps. The rest of this week is supposed
 DD> to be inthe low80s.

Right now it's cloudy and 80. Supposed to be low to mid 80s the rest of
the week with a low probability of rain.


 DD> This looks like a dandy if you like maple syrple - I'd use B'/rer
 DD> Rabbit dark molasses in its place.

 DD>       Title: Justin & Christine's Hurricane Pork
 DD>  Categories: Pork, Curry, Vegetables
 DD>       Yield: 6 Servigns

 RH> It does look good; I'd keep the maple syrup tho.

 DD> That's you. For some reason I have never cared for "tree blood". Be it
 DD> on panquakes, or as an ingredient is sauces or even in candy. I've
 DD> participated in making maple syrup, etc. and it's kinda neat. But
 DD> something in the flavour just puts my teeth on edge.

 RH> Since I can't print Fido from this computer, I looked it up at the
 RH> source and printed it, will probably try it this fall.

 DD> Are you using the Netbook? I have a wi-fi dongle on mine so it can
 DD> talki to the other comptuers as well as my printer.

I'm using an HP, not quite as small as a net book or tablet, not quite
as big as a full on laptop. In a way, it is a lap top as I just curl up
in a recliner with the computer on my lap.
