I don't wanna see Wilma on a beach anywhere near here, thank you.

UPDATE: Statistics are a wonderful thing. NOT.

Oh, if this hits the U.S., specifically Florida, eventually as a category 3 or greater, history says we are long overdue as the frequency of late hits of category 3 or greater since 1965 is 1 in 13 years. From 1900 to 1964, it was 1 in 3.

Hey, you've got that new roof; time to test it!

Did you get up there and glue it yet?

Pffft. In theory, it's all glued and they've been out here 3 times to fix leaks. I'll be happy if Ebola shows up in time to help put the big window boards up.

I really hate this guy...

Tropical Storm Wilma, the record-tying 21st named storm of the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season, has formed in the Caribbean. Accuweather.com Chief Hurricane Meteorologist Joe Bastardi expects Wilma will become a major hurricane that could hit the Florida panhandle next weekend.

Any relation to Bingley BASTARD?

It's the diminuitive. For when he wants to go out 'incognito'.

Posted by: tree hugging sister at October 17, 2005 11:06 AM

Now you're not only calling him a bastard but diminuitive as well. Damn, can't win for losing, Bing.

Well, he's always been a little sh$t, so nothing new here.

and glue it yet?
Oh, I getcha, I getcha ~ the roof decking to the joists gluing. Nope. Can't touch that until the weather cools way down. Mid to high 80's here still, which means the crawl spaces are about 110 degrees. That combined with no airflow and construction cement fumes means Major Dad collects on the insurance and buys himself a 'Vette in my memory. Can't have that, now can we?

Nope, I can't Cullen. That's why I'm content being the InstaDrunk.

Bingley's not your last name?
