We are not that worried to be honest - I pride myself on my extremely high level of being completely unprepared. Plenty of booze and ammo on hand - and yes I did fire up my generator this morning and amazingly it started.
Heres to a few days of good BBQ plenty of drinking, talking to my neighbours (we only ever see each other during hurricanes) and not having to do any work - except pulling trees out of my pool.
I am currently not watching any television, I made the mistake of looking at channel 4 news last night - the graphics they use are amazing - the only thing missing were the four horsemen of the apocalypse - they were making it look like a 200 mile wide 40,000 mph tornado raining death and destruction upon us, they even had this green smog like radioactive cloud looking thing in its wake.
