Hurricanes Really Blow, Literally

What F4 are you talking about in 1998? We had a F5 May 3rd of 1999, and a F4 May 8th of 2003. They were 3 F3's in 1998. There was also the F2 that hit Moore in October of 1998. Can you help me out here, I am lost?

You can thank the Pilgrims for the dandelions.... There were none in North America until they wanted to brink a plant from the old world to remind them of home. They picked the dandelion because it was hardy and would survive the voyage, and the multiply fast.

No bodies or anyth>>

Don't panic, Don. As a graduate of HS in Ft Walton Beach in 66, I couldn't tell you what levels hit us. I do know the house my folks were looking at with the private dock on the bay and guest house, disappeared in 67.

I have been through some hurricanes, big and small, >

Actually... here is where I saw it, and I am told that this is the buckle of the bible belt. It's not vulgar, just funny.

I have over 10 freaking acres of grass. A little 7.5' by 13.5 foot spot is NOT going to make a rippin bit of a difference.

Bummer. Sounds like you need a LOT more bricks....

I was thinking more like some horses. Or a bigger mower.

Ah.

Well, I'm 51 and, well, unappealing. I've never had that problem.

Besides, I would think that a simple "no" would work as well or better than a tire iron.

DAMN, you guys do nice work. Hey - Jean's been talking about replacing the wood patio deck with a stone patio... I don't suppose you work in stone as well as brick, do you? I'd like a 25-foot stepped waterfall along the left edge, if you can swing it.

Here's a photo page of the reclamation project:

I have nowhere near 10 acres (okay, roughly 1/20th of that), but I still wonder what to do with all the crap I'm pulling out of the "garden". I'll have to check into open burning. Failing that, I may have to buy a chipper/shredder.

hahahahahahaha : ) LOL Make my day!!!!!!!
