OK, we'll let you off this time .......... benefit of doubt, bi-location etc. But OP if you are right then the world has starting rotating the other way and think of the implications there ...... changing currents, prevailing winds etc. So I just hope that you're a tad confused/brahms& liszt. Cheers!

Wait, arent you the guy who created the "Choose paying back Mortgage or Choose Life?" thread? Who also said:

But, I am skint, skint, skint with these payments

But yet you are in New York at the moment? :pac:

Between this Hurriance on the east coast and the rioting in Detroit this is gonna be a few bad days for the US economy.

This is a balls. Family wedding next weekend and half the family meant to be coming in from Newark & New York. Looking like they may have to stay back to pick up the pieces, national guard are on standby waiting to help.

Nothing to worry about then.:D:D

Sort of:

fishy fishy

it could be similar to the tsunami that never was in hawaii over the weekend. everyone evacuated - emergency warnings and it ended up being a little more than a puddle.

Hysterical reactions again - half of them stocking up on frozen pizza they can't cook if the power goes out - the rest of them will be saying its an illuminati death weapon to sacrifice the population of the east coast to the full moon lizzard goddess.

True enough, when i lived in nyc there was a similar over reaction to a supposed hurricane and it turned out to be nothing more than a normal day in Donegal like storm.

Local economy did very well though.

"Hurricane Sandy"?! What a fooking bent name

"Oooh, it's a bit windy and sandy out. Oohh, best stay home."

Might as well have called it "Hurricane Breezy" or "Hurricane Chilly".

Where are all the "Hurricane Motherfooker"s?

El Guapo!

Well to be fair, the hurricane did kill a load of people in the Carribean so they had every right to be a bit wary. Plus I'd say a lot of Americans don't want to take any chances since Katrina. Better safe than sorry.

Most people have gas barbecues (with tops) so cooking a pizza will take less time than firing up an electric oven etc. But most Americans like the buzz of the queues. We should be quite safe up here but will get 12" to 15" of rain so flooding will be the problem. It is wet now but not overtly so. In case of a long outtage I've stacked wood that will keep the stove going for 3 days @24 hrs.

Looks like rain alright : http://www.earthcam.com/usa/newyork/statueofliberty/?cam=liberty_hd

Mitt Romney is advising everyone to follow his tried and tested survival guide and evacuate to their second or third homes for safety.

Why are people generally so concerned about what's going on USA?

Every year huge storms hit parts of China/S.E. Asia and many other parts of the world too and no one ever talks about them...

OH but they DO! Probably more than the rest of the world combined in fact, but in Chinese or Mandarin and it's too hard to keep up.

Flights are not the problem. If there is flooding and damages to theirs homes and businesses then they will have to remain to clean up and sort it out.

Too strong a word, they were warning of closures for three days already.

One typically get stranded by unexpected events or underestimated events, Sandy is neither.
