That’s not funny. I’ve got relatives suffering from multiple hurricanes at this point. If I had my way you would’ve been banned a second after you hit the post button. Saying something like that isn’t right. ---

I get mad when I hear people here in Philadelphia say ‘aw man, Ivan is going to make us have rain here’. I’m like… ‘WTF!?.. how about you go down there, then let me hear you complain about a little rain!’. ---

The center of Ivan went right over my parents’ home in Mobile, AL, but living on a higher elevation than the rest of the city helped a lot. Only a few trees fell, and of course, power is out, but besides that, we survived it well 🙂 ---

Jas: Read the entire thread… his first post was bitter sarcasm mocking the way his peers are acting about the situation. ---

K-man glad everything turned out well. I had some cousins in Mobile that evacuated up to Montgomery - they said it was really really bad…still waiting on news. It rocked our area of Tallahassee pretty well. We had a lot of wind and a few tornadoes. One tornado pretty much knocked out the bridge in pensacola area - ![](http://www.fhp.state.fl.us/PhotoGallery/images/PG091604.jpg) That’s one of our troopers out there to assess the situation. Haven’t heard too much from out there because they are sort of disconnected from the world right now.

My Apologize, reading that just made me go crazy angry, think thats why i missed the sarcasm part ☹ @The Reefster No i dont have no friends in florida, just hate people getting killed in that manner & moreover someone enjoying a holiday over it (thats how i orignally thought it was put) ---

I meant like how can people be your friends if they are happy they have no school when people are dying. I didn’t mean “some” friends died in the words of an amount, just…some so called friends… ---

My ambition, before I die, is to see a tornado. Not on tv or any other media presentation. I wanna see it with my own eyes. I wanna feel nature at its strongest, angriest…when it reminds us who owns the planet. Just to feel the excitement and danger of the situation makes me feel excited just now. Mind you I live in a country that doesn’t get them, those of you in the states are probably fed up with them, especially this year. A tornado mind, not a hurricane…I’m not suicidal.
