Question: should we expect anything beyond a somewhat windy Texas frog strangler out of this in Venice?

LOL...don't forget bourbon, vodka, gin, sake, brandy and the endless opportunities in wine...you never know what kind of storm-induced emergency might arise.

One of the first things I rescued from Sandy was the small fridge that started to float away in the back yard. I was more worried about the 50 bucks worth of imported beer than the 50K in damage to the house.

Yeah, that xfinity email was kinda insulting.

1: if the power isn't back on yet, your cable box won't work. (Uh, yeah...neither will my TV!)

2: Don't call us. Our magic network will tell us what isn't working.
