Panama and Costa Rica are too far south to get Hurricanes. They are becoming more popular as many of the Caribbean islands are getting storm ravaged. No place is completely immune. Hurricane Irene hit Nicaragua in 1971. Hurricane Otto in 2016 is the southernmost hurricane landfall in over half a century. But Panama is your safest bet. Panama city is starting to look like Manhattan, complete with a Trump property. |

Really well said, except the fright fart comment, which was stupendous! Still laughing. So appropriate. Gaseous words from fear-mongering weakness. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

AZDuffman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 135 Posts: 18207 | One neat thing about the cold is watching the smokers leave for their fix, knowing I can stay warm here as long as I skip running three blocks for coffee. Trying to cut back how much I spend there same as every new year anyhow. The President is a fink. |

Never took up the coffee habit, it's as bad as smoking. My wife drives me nuts with it when we eat out. That stupid cup has to be constantly topped off and a never ending supply of cream has to come at all times. I drink water, that's it. And oh my god, if she can't get the attention of the waitress for the refill, all hell breaks loose. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | This is getting fricking ridiculous. I have the front door sealed off with Great Stuff this year and it really is great stuff. So to put in a new suet cake, I have to walk around the house to the front yard thru 2' deep snow, at 5 above zero. By the time I got back inside, my fingers were screaming at me from the cold, even with gloves on. I'm really sick of this cold. I know, it's warm in FL and AZ, nobody gives a shit. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
