Default Hurricane Sandy looks pretty bad

At least the taxis finally got a bath...

Sort of sucks though since they no longer make the CV.


Upstate had MUCH less than forecast. Some gusty wind but less than 1/2"
of rain.
Basically a non-event so far. Power was out for about 17 hrs.

Seen a lot of the folks who REFUSED to evacuate whining that they wanted
to be rescued. My opinion is that if you stayed behind and now need
rescue you should pay for the assist.


Here in northern CT it was pretty much a non-event. For me it turned
over an empty trash can, dropped a few branches, and not much else.
Accuweather and the Governor were telling me that the sky was falling
the whole time.


Apparently, this event once again proves value of owning a home in a
place of at least modestly higher elevation. Very interesting from a
survivalist standpoint.
