During real emergencies there is usually a limit, like 10 gal, on how much gas you can buy at any one time. This is easily controlled inside the gas station. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Instead of buses they should be sending fuel trucks like they did during the Fort MacMurray fire evacuation. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

Are you going anywhere or hunkering down? Are you worried? Are people around you worried? Is the media misleading us all? |

I'm not in an evac zone. So staying. Things could change, but no signs of that so far. By this time tomorrow, I'll probably know for sure. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Right now it looks like it's avoiding the East coast of FL and going up the less populated West coast. It might not be as bad as everybody thinks, the MSM will be heartbroken. They won't be able to blame Trump very much, like they did with Harvey. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I thought it was because we elected Trump? Or let the Pate win the SB? I can't keep it all straight. The President is a fink. |

I get to Wallmart at 11pm They are working hard stocking the shelves on the late shift I spot tuna fish on a huge pallet. Total score getting tuna fish. I spot peanut butter on a pallet. Get some of that I wouldn't be surprised if I am without power a few days to a week Hunkering down in Tampa as the mother**cker heads straight for me Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I'm ready to stay or leave. Still no evacuation orders though. I would like to zig while the storm zags, but the path has to be clear enough to decide. 50 mile right or left of it could make some difference, but not much good if you pick wrong.
