Hey guys,

Well my bowyer friends...... here comes Fran and she looks like one serious B@#$%# !!

I like living in Florida but its times like this I miss Illinois real bad !!

I here ya-man i am just up the street in ga. and its path should take it right over my area tuesday[:'(]opening day here is sept-11. I hope all this mess is gone by then but the flooding is what we will most likely see here. All i can say is it s*(x![:'(]. Take it easy down there and be safe! and good luck on the upcoming season!

Hey I appreciate you takin the blunt of it for us though. I'm in Ga also. I live in west ga on the ala. border so I get all the crap from them and the gulf. Mostly winter storms though. My best freind lives in Orlando and he is headed up today as a matter of fact. I can only imagine what the driving conditions are down there. Be safe and we'll pray for ya'.

I agree with you

Don't complain too bad, unless you are losing property. My parents live on Pine Island. Basically that is Sanibel, or St. James City. Many of them lost EVERYTHING with the last hurricane.

With the pathetic manner that FL has their insurance set up for non-res's, most don't have insurance. Two familys that are "neighbors" to my folks lost mostly everything, and are back to ground zero...No insurance. The company's wanted $1500/yr for hurricane insurance, and there has NEVER been a recorded hurricane on Pine Island.

Well, they gambled and lost. My parents lost some windows and gutters, but nothing else. The house 100' away was demolished.
