Courting Disaster

The Hurricane Chainsaw Massacre. Arafat on the move. Judges on hold. Punch card California. Teachers AWOL. Plus more.
p> NAP BEFORE THE STORM br> Re: Jeremy Lott's Worst Case Scenario : /p>

I'm both a two-time ex-Washingtonian and a survivor of Hurricane Hugo, so I do feel for y'all.

Get a good nap today. If the weather forecast holds for tonight, you won't be getting any sleep. Whatever happens, believe me, it will be easier to bear if you get a nap before the commotion starts instead of no nap and no sleep between now and maybe noon Friday.

I faced Hurricane Hugo 200 miles inland from a town just west of Charlotte, North Carolina, and on three hours' notice.

Compared to a lot of my neighbors, I got off pretty lightly, but some of the memories aren't going to go away.

p>After 14 years, I still get twitchy and irritated when I hear chainsaws -- because I heard chainsaws constantly for a MONTH after Hugo hit.... br> -- Elizabeth Whitaker br> Easley, SC /p>
