Sorry but I had to vent...I feel better now: A few days before Jeanne and all through my town' 1000's of psycho's are rushing around Publix was restocked but now shelves are bare but managers promise more ice will be there Hardware stores crammed with a line out the door prepare yet again to restock their store They frantically call and beg their suppliers send us more tarps, more tapcons more pliers! We need flashlights and lanterns and lots of propane Our customers seem to have just gone insane! they are buying things we thought no one would buy its good for the business, but you gotta ask why? Where is the stuff that they bought just last week when Hurricane Ivan had caused them to freak? He went down below us and off to the west so why are you they back here on this new quest? Donations were sent. Oh yes, now we see! The victims of Ivan have that rope for your tree. So back in they come and swarm all the aisles sorting through tapcons and battery piles. The frenzy gets worse as the day turns to night and all are familiar with one certain sight The people are huddled around their tv's waiting to hear about Jeannes next big breeze Will she come closer? When will she turn? As my sister up north asks "when will you learn?" Hammers are banging once more on plywood covering windows cause Jeanne in the 'hood. She's spinning due west and won't go away silently stalking her Florida prey We thought she had gone out to sea long ago but now she is back with a FRANCIS echo The wench is now aiming at poor Vero Beach the center of Florida is well within reach The place is in turmoil there's no gas again I haven't seen gas cans since I don't know when! Hurricane season is not over yet We're only at "L" in the darn alphabet! So pardon our whining and constant obsession but we feel like we all have got manic depression! Thank you...thank you very much |
