I read once that a guy who worked for the National Weather Service named a hurricane after his daughter as a gift in honor of her High School graduation back in 1969. Kind of weird, huh?

The Hurricane was "Camille" - something like the worst storm to ever hit the US mainland, a Category 5 that hit around Biloxi and Gulfport. I wonder how Camille felt about her gift afterward?

Where do these names come from?I guess one year its female names and then one year male names.It alternates right?

There's never names like Shakira,Chantelle,Estrella,or Shanique.

Juanita,Guadalupe....etc.

I live in austin. But Leary Lane is within walking distance of my parent's house. Mookie lives a little more south, but still reasonably close.

well i called out to you 'casue i knew you'd help me out..
but really.. if Mookie is willing , adn it wouldn't be too much of a problem.... that'd be great to have the heads up.

besides.. it could make for some great storm damage pics.....

[ObiwanGinobili]

.. I used to rent this little scrub house in SilverCity.... the floor was alike a rollarcoaster... you know that thing ain;t gonan make it.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I'm sure he'll check it out once this thing is all over. Hopefully everything will be okay.

My mom is going to probably evacuate and stay here with me till after the weekend, and my dad will be busy doing city the entire time. So Mookie's your best bet.

[ObiwanGinobili]

cool.

yeah.. i got my fam, the inlaws, and my best friend and her husband staying here with me....... these are my last hours of peace and quiet.

[MannyIsGod]

CBF, I'm glad your mom is getting out. My coworker is from Tiboly (sp?) and all of her family is heading out except her father who has to stay at some plant.

[ObiwanGinobili]

Tivoli

[MannyIsGod]

Yeah, thats the place.

[Dos]
