hurricane Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 Filming during hurricane season is risky at best. How come no one at the production company asked us in Florida?

hurricane Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 A miracle - a hurricane where we didn't lose power. Amazing!!!!!! Lots of rain and wind. Everyone makes such a big deal about these things - but as I tell people down here there isn't a year that's gone by without a 60+ storm moving through the Seattle area - and when I was four we had 100+ there. No wonder we run out of names when the weather folks name anything over 35 mph. In the Northwest, they'd run out of names in a month. Glad she's gone - we're almost to the end of the season. Compared to last year, it's been downright dull in Central Florida. -- Hurricane (no relation to Wilma) -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

BILLY BONES Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 Well, I'm headed back to the Bahamas tomorrow. It sounds like most everything faired well in the hurricane, and we'll begin filming again this weekend, I suppose. See ya! BB Capt. William Bones Then he rapped on the door with a bit of stick like a handspike that he carried, and when my father appeared, called roughly for a glass of rum. This, when it was brought to him, he drank slowly, like a connoisseur, lingering on the taste, and still looking about him at the cliffs and up at our signboard. "This is a handy cove," says he, at length; " and a pleasant sittyated grog-shop. Much company, mate?" My father told him no, very little company, the more was the pity. "Well, then," said he, "this is the berth for me." Proprietor of Flags of Fortune.
Rogue Mermaid Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 My boyfriend is heading to Florida (from upper eastern Maryland) with three other tech guys to fix his company's computers that went down in Wilma. They have to drive, sleep in a van, and most of the places they have to go have no power. He mentioned having to go to Jupiter and Orlando and I forgot where else. He just found out today, he leaves tonight, and he doesn't know when they'll be home. There isn't even enough time for me to see him before he leaves. We're gonna miss our first Halloween together DAMN YOU WILMA!!!!! Pardon the drama
Captain Jim Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Cap'n Jim 'ere...all's well...Lost one shingle (a single shingle) and some aluminum soffit...Sustained winds of 80-85 mph, some up in the 110 range. Still and all, nothing like last year. And now, for your amusement, a link to all of the stuff that has happened of note in the last two years of hurricane activity...

I would but he has to save the cell phone battery and charge it whenever he finds electric so I've been letting him call me when he can. He was in Jupiter Thursday and should be in Sunrise today.
hurricane Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 Aye, it has been a rough season. A member of the Arizona Yacht Club died in Florida while riding out Hurricane Wilma on his 34ft sailboat. Did he not hear the word "hurricane?" While I'm sorry to hear that anyone bit it in the storm, this is just the kind of folly that adds needlessly to the death toll here. People just don't seem to get the fact that these are dangerous storms. Witness the whiney idiots crying in South Florida now because FEMA didn't give them water and food. Didn't they go to the store before the storm hit? Geez, they had five days warning. - Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

I don't consider myself an experienced sailor, but I did read the article in Sail magazine about tieing off boats in hurricanes. The first rule was "Don't plan on staying on the boat." The second rule was "tie off with at least 4 lines to the shore, preferrably six." I feel for his wife, but sailors are stubborn individuals. I would rather die in a hurricane than the slow painful death like my dad is from diabetes.
