Kittydump, NC - Batten down the nuthatches! Hurricane Earl strengthened with sustained winds today leaving hope that it will come near enough to the shore to allow the geeky “new guy” weather broadcasters up and down the east coast to be assigned to report “live” in the storm while trying not to blow away. Inappropriately dressed, mostly inaudible, and likely to only have the local drunks at the tavern and surfer dudes “high on life” (yeah, that’s exactly what they’re high on) to interview because the have refused or forgotten to evacuate, these rain suited roving reporters are sure to provide plenty of viewing amusement all season as there’s always the chance that they will blow away, sending us into fits of cacophonous laughter because their jobs are so lame.
Earl started as a tropical depression and is allegedly going to move parallel to the coast of the Carolinas as a category 3 hurricane, which will surely lessen our depression brought on the incessant news coverage of the 5th anniversary Hurricane Katrina, which has just officially eclipsed 911™ in “pull at audience heartstrings and make us feel badly about our government’s lame response to emergencies” news coverage.
