The last time I went on vacation to Florida, Hurricane Andrew came
my way (1992).  First on one side of Florida, then the other side.
High-tailed it back to Louisiana, but to no avail.  The stupid storm
followed me right straight home, hitting dead center.  After that
ordeal, I got me a t-shirt that says I SURVIVED ANDREW!

The time before that (1985), I went to Sarasota, Florida to visit my
brother.  Hurricane Juan headed straight for me.  That's when my brother
decided to kick me out.  So I went back to Louisiana, where Hurricane
Juan hit me three times, in two different cities.

EK>2 Million people without homes. Some will be without power for up to a
EK>month! Now there is another brewing south of cuba!

Hey, maybe I should take a vacation to Clearwater, Florida.  :)
