I was lying on my back porch last night listening to music and whatnot and I fell asleep...and woke up bathed in sweat. 95 degrees at night!
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
 We are not now that strength which in old days
 Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
 One equal temper of heroic hearts,
 Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Haven't they been saying that shit for months now????  It's humanity's fault...
Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return, to obtain, something of equal value must be lost.  That is alchemy's first law of equivalent exchange.  In those days we really believed that to be the world's one and only truth~Alphonse Elric

Hurricane Sandy Heading For New England

(from article)

It's been well over a year since the leftovers of Hurricane Irene slammed into our area causing general havoc including massive power outages. That was August 28, 2011. Since then there has been little to get worked up over weather-wise, a couple of so-so snowstorms last winter, a few severe thunderstorms and small tornadoes here and there but thankfully no major, widespread weather disasters. In fact, during the past year or so, we have been living in relative ?weather heaven? with an unusual amount of sunny, warm days during each of our past four seasons.

Hurricane Sandy: Another "Perfect Storm"?

Now, because of the projections of a few of the many weather prediction mathematical models, there is rampant speculation that New England is about to be hit by a major storm perhaps of the ?Perfect Storm? ilk that struck around Halloween in 1991. Right now Hurricane Sandy, a Category 1 hurricane, is a long way away, located south of Jamaica in the Caribbean about 1700 miles to our south. During the next couple of days, it will move over Cuba and into the Bahamas, threatening parts of southern and eastern Florida with hurricane force winds. After that, it is expected to continue to move northward ? and this is where it gets sticky. Some data indicates it will move more eastward, away from the U.S. mainland but other just as reliable data is forecasting the storm to gradually lose its tropical characteristics and morph into a massive storm that will turn up the east coast, the center of which could move directly over Southern New England. If that happens, and it is a BIG IF, it would be here early next week. Since the storm would be so large it could well extend over several days, say from Monday through Wednesday. With so much uncertainty in the future track of the storm, it is impossible at this time to fill in any of the details such as how much wind, how much rain, how much, if any, flooding, etc.

The bottom line is that we still have plenty of time to watch, prepare and calculate but, at least, the potential is there.

why do i have a sinking feeling we're so screwed?

this storm is gearing up to be of literal epic proportions, indeed one for the history books...  it is literally what everyone is talking about around my area...

somehow methinks this entire area of the US northeast coast (i am in Providence, Rhode Island but this would also be including places like Boston, Hartford, New York City, Philadelphia, Newark, Atlantic City, Baltimore, Washington DC, etc etc)

the media is all the rage on this one - theyre saying things are linging up atmospherically to make this a very major event...  

not so much a hurricane-5 but just a huge motherfucking storm with everything lined up perfectly to make it a major thing for this entire area of the country...

if anyone has heard of what was called "The Perfect Storm" we got nailed by in 1991 (they even made a movie of it lol) theyre saying this will be even stronger and bigger than that...
every station is saying this will be a "serious threat" for all the major cities of this area of the US...
and to take this very seriously as a result...

it is taking a "worst-case" scenario where i am...  the upper right-hand quadrant of any storm moving north is the worst place to be :(
not just me - but Boston, New York City, Hartford - we're all gonna get mutherfuckin nailed by this one...

and the size of the storm will be massive so it will be a two or three day event for this entire area of where i live...  would be easier if it was a one-day storm but it is to be so massive in size and slow down, it is gonna hang out here for a while...

theyre projecting the cost of possible damage in the billions all over this area!

i might be offline for a while lol  i hope not tho, but i am expecting i may be...  :(
bc's modder of the month polls may be late this month lol

I keep on thinking this could happen to New York, maybe not quite like this:



Or maybe this storm dislikes the upcoming presidential election?
