1. Jeb instituted martial law a few days BEFORE 9/11/01

So don't worry. /sarcasmoff

:scared:

[w13rd0]

2. Jeb...

...Jeb will single handedly turn back the hurricane by standing on a rocky shore with a regal staff made from the thigh bone of an infidel...

[davhill]

3. Not just Florida

In addition to the National Guard units who will not be available, police and emergency personel have been decimated by the reserve call-ups everywhere. We are not prepared for a natural disaster or another terrorist attack because those we need in a crisis are tied up being human targets in Iraq.

4. CIvil Hurricane Administrative Deployment. Or CHADS

9. Now, not to worry... Governor Ridge and his wonderful

gang at Homeland Security will come through. Why they might even wave an orange flag for you all-- from the secured environs of Washington, of course.

My best hopes/wishes to you all 'Right' and Gulf Coasties! I do hope she/he fizzles out...

from landlocked Denver--sometimes that's a "good thing...."

5. any of the east coast states

will have the same problem if it is struck by isabel. Keep good karma going, that forces to be will steer it out into the atlantic

[Terwilliger]

6. His brudda Jeb will declare a national emergency

become dictator

[jody]

7. JEB will invite Pat Robertson to pray the hurricane away. eom

[Divernan]

8. Landfall predicted Thursday, anywhere from Charleston to So. VA

My latest input from FEMA contact is that this is one monster storm, the Category Five of all Cataegory Fives. Worst case scenario would be a Delmarva Peninsula landfall, i.e., right up the Chesapeake Bay. You're looking at a six week deployment for emergency agencies/personnel if it lands anywhere on our coastline.

10. Don't The Latest Models Having It Miss Florida

As a Central Florida resident I hope so....

I also hope it misses all inhabited areas...

11. Osama planned it this way

Weather terrorism

You don't have to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows
