Good. Another year my name doesn't make the list. I think it would be really annoying to hear my name all over the TV. Of course it wouldn't be as annoying as getting devastated by one of these hurricanes however. Fortunately I live in NJ so by the time hurricanes make it up here they usually aren't too bad.

Let's hope that we don't need all those names this year!!!

amen to that! I heard a forecaster say that it should be another above average year for storms, but nothing like last year. They said it's doubtful that will ever be repeated.

I also heard that we're likely to get one here in the Northeast. We've said for a long time that we are overdue for a big one, but it doesn't stop people from buiding right at the shore.

Well lets hope that it doesn't hit. We are very overdue for a big one though....so i'd understand if we do get one or two. I just hope that my beachfront house is still there when all is said and done. :lookaroun
