Wednesday 9/1/2010 – Everyone in Florida is breathing a sigh of relief that Earl is missing us. However, he may take a swipe at the Mid-Atlantic coast from NC up to Maine.

Tuesday 2/2/10 – Happy Groundhog’s Day. In thinking about Punxsutawney Phil he seems to have a really good job. People bring him food and clean up after him.
