"Tree of Scissors" That's funny stuff right there. It's like the "tree of woe", from conan the barbarian. "contemplate this, on the tree of woe" HaHa

But, to all the eastcoasters, like people are saying, do what you have to to stay safe.

[juxt]

i think its supposed to hit the ny/nj area tonight.

Well, now that it's over my TV is showing some unbelievable flooding in Vermont area as well as other NE states. Just because New York wasn't flattened some TV folks are starting to think this really wasn't a big deal.

Apparently they don't live in Vermont....

[Johnny O]

Nj & pa

NJ and PA are experiencing a lot of flooding and many people will be without electric for a few more days.

Thanks for your toughts!

Thanks for the well wishes Alan, my area was just out of reach of any serious wind, but I hope Piefurz, TommyT, Real Gymm, Donnie, Juxt and any others in the path of Irene are spared from any harm or property damage. I've been through Katrina, so I do know how tough strorms can be.

When I say keep on baggin here, I wish "sand bagging" wasn't part of that thought.

Take care and be safe in the aftermath east coasters.

I'm sure your in for some major repair if that's your department. I'm sure the people you are helping to power for truly appreciate what your do. Just be safe my friend! Pace your self in the Long hours to come.

[Allentown]

I just lost my electric for 14 hours. I am in Allentown, PA. There was branches everywhere on the streets

[Zaza]

Three trees down on the house...no electric since Sunday at 10:30am...REALLY windy and lots of rain (here in Albany, NY).

Just finished cutting and hauling what I could...power is back now...I'm BEAT and here I am feeling guilty that I haven't hit the bag yet today!

FYI... I was hitting yesterday afternoon when one of the trees hit the house...scared the bejesus out of me!

Sorry to hear about the trees hitting the house Zaza, hope no damage occurred. Glad to see your sense of humor is still in tact!

Thanks Nova...just some minor stuff... I was very lucky. We got hit pretty hard in these parts, glad it was only a cat.1!

Another thing I love about baggin'... you don't need electricty to do it. Spent most of the day Sunday hitting as the storm raged outside.

I hope those were fast 16hr shifts. If there is a bright side to working those hours, I guess it would be the OT pay............

Drunken bagging! I just attempted that the other day! Only I didn't have any booze....was attempting a string of spinning elbows and got REALLY REALLY dizzy....your way sounds more fun!

"Tree of woe..." All we need is James Earl Jones with a straight hair weave..............

Hope you guys are okay
