Hey hows it going down there? Charley isnt blowing you around right?
I dont watch the news much, but i work in the mailing industry, and got a notice of about 15 post offices shut down because of the hurricane.
Hope your doing alright!

Im still here guys, thanks for showing concern.
Luckily [unlike Andrew] Charley took mercy on my area, but sadly hit the migrant/retirement area of Punta Gorda. I feel so bad for those people, the damage is truly devastating.
I remember after Andrew how it looked like a warzone, it was so hard to believe the amounts of damage those storms bring upon the lands.
I was happy to learn that Sevas/Snod is ok as he and his family live in the Keys.
Some friends and I are talking about putting together care packages for the Punta Gorda residents [diapers, formula, bottled water, etc] and taking the drive there and just passing things out.
Its really sickening how people only see dollar signs when something like this happens. You see people selling chainsaws for $500.00, bottled water for $5.00 +, and if thats not bad enough you get a slew of bogus "repairmen" quoting people low amounts [acting as if they are helping and caring] to make repairs to their homes then taking off with the "deposits" to make said repairs.
Some people truly sicken me and its times like this that I seriously hope that Kharma is not just a word.
Love you guys, thnaks again for your thoughts.

Right on, good idea with the care packages.
