Good "First Saturday" of September 2008 :)

Good morning world

What Cleo said about the coming hurricane Ike. The path this morning is showing it moving almost directly over the Keys* by beginning of the week. CNN keeps calling it a monster storm, which you can see in this view from the space station.

This weekend I should review lots of stuff for next week in case we're off the grid for awhile down here, but it's tempting to just take the weekend off and enjoy the pre-storm days while I can.

Wishing everyone a good weekend. Might catch some of you in the chatroom, even before OTB (if there is one this weekend).

* For those who don't know where the Keys are located, we're the little tiny islands off the bottom tip of Florida where the red line of the storm track touches between Tuesday and Wednesday on that map.
