  1. last time I looked it was down graded from a cat 5 to a 3 so at this rate the power won’t go out and BFH will still have is nickel in ice. Oh and you can keep the moldy cheese cause it’s probably out dated.. be safe and dry. all the best from way to HOT California…

  2. I talked the wife out of bugging out to Atlanta.
    LOL, looks like Atlanta, according to forecasts, is going to get more than we do.
    The power of positive thinking.
    No negative waves man.

  3. I agree with many – your power won’t go out. Some wind may strip a few fronds from your palm trees, but if you had left out your patio furniture, it would have been safe.

    I’ll take that old bag of lentils shoved in the back of your pantry! hehe

  4. @Claudia
    The wife calls me the Soup Nazi.
    I love lentils, fast cooking dried legume, currently I have red, green and brown ones.
    Just looked it up, over a dozen colours/sizes available.
    Number one rule for good soup:
    It takes two days to make soup.

  5. Out – Sunday, 7AM
    Back on – Monday, 6pm
    Internet – don’t think you’ll lose it.

    It looks like the worst of it will pass you by, thank goodness, but prayers for all on Florida’s west coast.

  6. @OpenTheDoor, soup or stew is always better the next day! I love making stew in winter. I par broil veggies from the summer and freeze them for the stews. I always have lentils and black beans handy. Yummy.

  7. Power out: Sun 9:43am
    Power back on: Wed 2:32 AM with occasional flickers that require annoying repeated resetting of clocks and the microwave.
    Internet: Hmm. I bet you don’t lose it.

  8. 1st- Power off: Sunday, 5:00 pm
    2nd- Power back on: Thursday, 1:00 pm
    Internet will not be interrupted.

    If I win, would actually like a BFH painting of a colorful block of Colby Cheese and a cup of water with a quarter at the bottom.

  9. Power out: A little after midnight
    Power on: Hopefully before Port St. Lucie spring training for the Mets

    Seriously: Be safe BFH and hopefully doesn’t hit you like the MSM wants it to so they can do the old Global Warming I told you so

  10. Don’t want to guess as just thinking about it traumatizes my wife and daughter (manual flush toilets using water from the swimming pool, dad?).

    My medication going bad.

    people losing lives.

    Our prayers for you and Florida, Georgia, SC, NC, etal.

    Hope you got some “daniels” ready (both battery powered mp3 players and empty glasses). Jack and Charlie, respectively.

  11. Your power goes out about 2pm Sunday, when they take it away from you and give it to the undocumenteds in Miami.
    Comes back on Sunday about 9:30pm, about the time Al Roker shows up to do a live shot.
    Internet, if it’s cable, goes out 5 minutes after the power stops, and comes back about 7 hours after power returns. Most cable internet requires a power connection in the area to keep the amplifiers running. Afterwards, the cable company will need their staff to get to the central office to reboot all the servers and routers.
    Lotsa luck dealing with the wind and flooding.
    Is it me, or have the networks put more time and people on Florida than they did in Texas?

  12. Power out 0420/9-10-17
    Power on 1620/ 9-13-17
    Internet following the above schedule pretty close.
    Hoping I am wrong on every count, and you and Al and your families all safe, dry and unharmed.
