The last major hurricane to hit here was Alicia in 1983. I was at the Rock at the time. By the time I came back, everything was fine. Rita may strengthen, even to category 5; but it will almost certainly be no stronger than a 3 at landfall. The water at this end of the gulf is never as hot as on the Florida side. On the other hand, unless the projections take a decided southward look, Lucy and I will evacuate on Thursday. George

Well, don't come to the Texas coast this weekend! I'll probably evacuate on Thursday, unless the projections show a definite trend to the south coast. George

See?? EASY! You're up, Raf, unless you want to give it back to Tom, who appears to have resurfaced (a little too conveniently, I think). George

So close...so damn close... Better guess it quick before I have to pack up and evacuate! george

Pick 1 from row A and 2 from row B. (Though you aren't spelling "row B" right.) George

I agree with the chef. Let's see some pics! George

How about intramural (college) sports? I played on my fraternity's softball, football, soccer, and volleyball teams. I don't find a good equivalent in your poll (maybe JV?). George

The first picture IS the clue. Maybe it's just too big! George

Then win the war and get back here! George

Okay. Do you recognize the movie that the second picture comes from? Add (part of) that to the first clue adn I'm sure you'll get it. George

Come on, guys, this is easy. George P.S. The previous picture I had for my last clue was unceremoniously replaced with a bad word by whoever owns the site the picture came from. Hopefully, none of you were offended.

How strong the high pressure over LA remains will determine whether Rita hits Texas or Mexico. Obviously, I'd prefer the latter. (Anything south of Victoria would probably be okay for me, but let's get off that Houston heading!) George

Yeah, Samurai, welcome! Your post sounded so much like one of George Aar's that I didn't even notice your screen name! (George uses the same avatar.) George

Actually, I was thrown by your comment that it was a bad show! BTVS was actually rather clever, and, yes, did have some good-looking young ladies. It was definitely better than the movie version, though Kristy Swanson is rather easy on the eyes, too! George

I don't know much about Neil Young's guitar skills, but his voice gives me the same reaction as fingernails on a blackboard! George

Correct. Note that the Grand Funk Railroad version had different words for this verse, so I wouldn't have given credit for it. George

Since thwe Strange One has gone "stealth mode," try this: George

I got it bad for you, girl; but I don't need a cure I'll just stay addicted and hope I can endure! George

God's blessings on your lives! George

"White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane? George

This is why we have rules against drinking during lunch hour! George

How many innies does he expect to reach? Does TWI still disdain the Internet? The innies who do find his site are probably afraid he's WayGB. Maybe he IS WayGB! (Or, he could just be clueless.) George

Did they make my life story into a movie? George

I'm sure if you see one, you'll be able to figure it out. It's like a cassette, except it doesn't go all the way into the machine. George

I'll probably use the other quote later, so I won't give it away now. :)--> George Your turn, Sharon.
