LORD PROTECT US!!! EMILY IS COMING!!!!!!

Hi: the projected track for emily is about the same, right on us at about
category 3. we are planning on following the official government instructions:

When notified of arrival, sit on chair place head between knees kiss ass goodbye!!

We are taking before, during and after pictures, the eye is supposed to go over
us, so i hope to get some good pictures of the inside of the eye.



Will post them on the web somewhere, will let you know where.

Put this address on the blog, please, i am not getting it here.

Yesterday was panic day here in the yucatan, everyone and their dog was in to
the stores to buy supplies.

So when i went today to get a couple of things, nothing left.

Fortunately, there was nothing truly urgent, but i did find a good quality cooler, for a semi-reasonable price. It was in the wrong pile and had the wrong sign on it, and the clerk did not want to check with the computer for the actual price.

He was very surprised when i went to the service desk and had a supervisor come out to check the price for me, and it was half of the price on the sign.

So he had to go and make up a new sign, and generally work, for a change.

We have customers in the building for the hurricane, and friends from down the
beach are staying in a hotel about 15 miles from the beach.

That is here my car will be, so that it does not get ruined by the salt water. We
expect to see possibly 3 to 4 feet of water here, for a few hours. Hopefully not, but
planning for the worst.

I want to use politicians and do-gooders to talk the thing to death, but it is the summertime, so they are all on vacation, gone to vegas, florida, baja california....

Have you bought shares in vaseline company yet?

You should, the way that lord is reaming the poor taxpayers of n.b. you should be using it by the ton!!

Going to get a couple of hours of sleep now, the staff comes in at 9 am for the
last of the preparations.

Lots of work, mostly dumb labour, carrying books and mattresses and kitchen stuff up to the second floor.

I have to supervise, and I have to move a water tank. and chase down the gas company, and pick up the bread from the bakery, the eggs from the market, more cat food and
litter,and...adn...and.....

Have fun
