I get tired of same old things sometimes and like to get new takes on things.<br /><br />Glad the hurricane didn't hit you all too badly. You made the right choice in not going to the con show I think. The only hurricane I ever experienced first hand was Hugo in 1989. I was in Charlotte at the time and we got hit pretty hard. Power was out for almost a week! No hurricanes here in L.A.
