The best thing to do is not worry about it...if you want to have a party or MnG, just have it...if people show up or do not show due to their own personal reasons then that is their problem.

Good night all...
back home sipping on some Moscatto watching the idiots on TV look increasingly dissapointed with each update on Sandy as its been weakening..
It was actually more annoying than anything else,little sprtizes of rain.wind(like we have now)
Shoot with the origional model cancellled(she got called in to work and we both decided to wait for more optimal conditions)shooting with a friend that moved down here from Evansville,going to experiment with a lot of stuff,how much we decide to let be seen by the public is in question
(Going to try a soft blow out style set in the pool,just to see how that style will work in water;and other weird stuff)
Thus the concern I had a few days shooting in this....
And Sandi is like 200 miles off of Jacksonville and causing these winds,can you imagine when this really gets cranked up

I was really surprised how close that game ended up being considering all the turnovers. Crazy! It was a terrible game all the way around. It was all about penalties, defense and turnovers. Yuk.
I can imagine that the Windsurfers and Kite Boarders at the North Island of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge are having a blast today.
When I lived on the East Coast of Virginia and a storm would come through, there were two lines of traffic with the Outer Banks of NC. One line evacuating North and a second line going South to Hatteras, NC to windsurf.
Like I always said, if it ain't blowing why bother going?

I could explain it, but it would take lots of charts and graphs, and since it not hitting Florida, I just am not that interested.
It's really quite simple.
Meteorologists consulted with Father Time and Mother Nature on a conference call. Duh! Didn't you hear about this on the Weather Channel? They did it live.

I learned a while ago not to watch the weather channel when a storm is hitting anywhere. Too damn much hype for ratings, and then the storm fizzles.

I've not watched it yet
I presume they have the special bumper graphic with the dramatic music and are calling it the storm of the century or stormageddon or something and Jim Cantore is on location somewhere

I've learned to ignore the hype on that channel and just wait for te guy who works at the hurricane center,who is usually right about these things.Its especially enjoyable when the guy(Steve Forbes I think)comes on with a new update showing the storm start to weaken,then the depressed looks of all the forcasters on set....then Cantore going on about how not to worry about the storm going from a cat 2 to a 50 mph storm as its different..
Though I will say this one is going to be really bad,and its behaving in ways that most hurricanes don't which is really concerning

Yet the majority of the people in the storm threads here are acting like they have Phd's from the AMS and NWA...
