    I personally liked in the original, when Dolemite called the guy a "rat-soup eatin' muthafucka."

    As for Gustav, it could be a muthafucka without the consumption of rat soup.

    I don't like the westward swing and the dip south of Cuba into piss-hot Caribbean water. This is looking a lot like Rita.

    Rita or Ivan.

    Very scary.

    Someone is gonna get pasted by a 4. Damn.

    Make sure you have a couple boxes with your key documents and items of intrinsic, sentimental value that can go into the back of the car.

    It keeps being revised southward. We may be OK.

    We? As in you?

    Sure.

    But the more south it tracks, the more people will die.

    OK. I may be OK. That's who I'm most concerned about. ::)

    It's exactly why I didn't make a peep. I'm in complete agreement.

    Gustav is officially a hurricane. It's supposed to track west for a few days, but it hasn't made the turn to the west yet. Plus, it's predicted to break back to the northwest and get into the center of the Gulf.

    Oh, and it's expected to be a major hurricane, possibly by the end of the day.

    Horrible news for New Orleans and the coastal parishes if it proves accurate.

    It'll be a cat 2 soon, cat 3 by the weekend. This is going to waylay some people.

    There goes the price of gas, again.

    Wonder if they'll get New Orleans fully evacuated this time? How strong will Gustav be when he arrives there? How much of New Orleans will be left after Gustav leaves?

    All this and more will be answered ... next week. Same Bat-Time! Same Bat-Channel!

    (Johnny ... get the hell outta there.)
