I am a frim believer school was not invented not to educate children, but simply a diversionary tactic to keep parents from throwing their kids out to the street Edited October 29, 2012 by plenzmd1

kegtapr Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Listening to the Atlantic city police scanner online - a little surreal, honestly. I've been doing that too, sounds like a game of monopoly.
marcre Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 I'm near Baltimore and it's definitely getting bad here. Strong wind and lot's of rain. It's only going to get worse.
K-9 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Just saw the images of a construction crane way up in the air at 57th and 6th in Manhattan that's beginning to fail according to reports. Police cordoning off the area apparently.
KD in CA Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Just saw the images of a construction crane way up in the air at 57th and 6th in Manhattan that's beginning to fail according to reports. Police cordoning off the area apparently. Is it really that big a deal to lower a crane from 75 stories in advance of a hurricane? By the way, I'd just like to take a moment to thank Hurricane Sandy for saving us from 3+ days of mind-numbing election crappola.
McBeane Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 I've been doing that too, sounds like a game of monopoly. Do you have a link? I think I found it but it says its offline so I'm not sure.
aussiew Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Those of us unaffected send our thoughts and prayers that you will all come through this unscathed. Especially Guff and Pat who seem to be right in the thick of this thing.
Nanker Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Recent images from the Jersey Shore And, no Slash and Pooj, there ain't no Snooki pics.

blzrul Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 ..and thanks to Adobe Photoshop, anyone who can still access the Web can be scared straight by some of the stuff people are posting. Much of it's pretty obviously fake, but it's amazing what people believe these days...for example, I actually thought the Bils make be a playoff contender, simply because someone said so during the off-season. Silly.

B-Man Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) While I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself, take a look at this picture of soldiers currently guarding the Tomb of the Unknowns in DC. Not photo-shopped. Edited October 29, 2012 by B-Man

Not photo-shopped. If you've never seen the changing of the Guard in person, I urge you to get there some time. It's a must see. And when they blow "Taps", there isn't a dry eye to be found in the crowd. Very proud moment as well. Edited October 29, 2012 by K-9
mead107 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 They say that picture was taken in sept.. It is an awesome sight to see in person. They are out there 24/7 no matter what the weather.
DC Tom Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 what mickey mouse sight are you getting 3-4 foot surge? http://www.nhc.noaa....esurge#contents NOAA has 13-15 foot surge. POUGHKEEPSIE. Try actually, y'know, READING next time. You...well, you know what you are. While I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself, take a look at this picture of soldiers currently guarding the Tomb of the Unknowns in DC. Not photo-shopped. That's totally photoshopped. Was there once when one of the guards finished his last shift (was transferring to another unit, somewhere). That was pretty cool.
