No time for a long entry this weekend. My parents came to town, and I wanted to hang out with them, so I didn't have much free time to sit down and really crank something out. It's great having them here and meeting Lil' S for the first time. We have plenty of great pics to show for it.
They are leaving on Tuesday, weather permitting. Hurricane Sandy is making it's way north and is suppose to wreck havoc on the Mid-Atlantic region in the next few days. Last I saw DC was just within the error bounds of it's projected path; it's unlikely that we will get the brunt of it, but heavy rain is a near certainty. In fact weather.com is saying the chance of rain here tomorrow is 100% -- a prediction the likes of which I've never seen before on weather.com. Last time my parents visited a crazy derecho blew through town, and thousands of people lost their power for an extended period of time. Coincidence? Yes, absolutely.
Below is the a youtube video of Bob Dylan's epic song "Hurricane" about a professional boxer named Rubin "Hurricane" Carter who was wrongfully convicted of murder. Denzel Washington played him a 1999 biopic. It's a pretty good song, but if you listen to the lyrics carefully they're very ramble-y and pretty bad overall.
Anyway, this is my reverse jinx for Sandy coming through here.
