Why don't they name these storms differently and creatively? Name them like Kitchen Sink, Pipe Wrench, or the ever popular Toilet Bowl. Why not use infamous names such as Hurricane Hitler, Typhoon Ghadaffyi, or Tropical Depression Dillinger.
These storms names are totally irrelevant. They could have names like bambi or thumper or flower or whatever, but we along the gulf coast have learned to take them all seriously. And when they start gaining that kind of power so far away from the mainland it is especially important to keep a watchfull eye on the situation. I guess you have to experience firsthand what these storms can do, as I'm sure many posters here have, to understand what I'm saying. These thing are very, very unpredictable. The best we can hope for is a blocking system to develop before it gets too close.
It is considered badluck to have hurricane parties...only drunken fools and white peeps throw them...you never find the bodies...even the foundation slap of the building disappears...and the victims are only remembered as urban myths and the living get an eerie warning, like frontdoor steps leading to nowhere, left behind which stands
until nature overgrows the site...
Hi banasy
It seems to be that the more hurricane parties ther are, the better we fare.

I'm anxiously awaiting for the day when an Atlantic storm blows that big size of Texas trash heap in the middle of this ocean back to where it came from. (The NYC vicinity) Did you know that NYC used to load their trash on barges and dump it out in the ocean? Weird. But so is NYC.
Yeah, now...and is if they didn't know that dumping trash in international waters was illegal, not to mention immoral. NYC is not known for being a city with high moral values, and for good reason.
