I'm sure no one in the East Coast gets stranded by the floods, or injured.

Sandy's probably the first sign that the world might end... Or maybe not.

I don't live in the USA but I am very much aware of what's happening around there.

Uhm ... End of the world? No. A hurricane. A great big one, but still just a storm. Things happen. The reason it looks as if there's an increase in natural disasters is the increase in the speed of communication and the huge number of ways you can report things. It's okay.

Yes, I always take large hurricanes happening in hurricane season as a sign of the impending apocalypse.

Well, I was wrong.
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.

Insane winds, flooding, and downed trees. Lost the power 4 times with it coming back... neighbor's roof tiles came off too. Poor sod.

Of course, world ends several times every year but government are keeping it secret by influence of illuminati which is working in interests of huge corporations, funded by ancient aliens and manned by reptilian lizard-men and led by Kenyan Obama and his Muslim aides bent on taking over the world...
