Auntie Em, Auntie Em...


It's a twister! We are supposed to have a little encounter with the fengsheng typhoon tomorrow. If it is a category 8 then I don't have to go to work. Word on the streets is that it will be a category 3 in the morning, likely elevating to an 8 by the afternoon. Unfortunately this may mean that I cant leave the office (can you say lame?). I am ready for my first Tropical Storm. Kind of exciting in a slightly masochistic way. Sadly, the same typhoon went ravaging through the Philippines yesterday and a cruise ship overturned killing several people. Apparently, the infrasctucture in Hong Kong is quite good, and well prepared to withstand whatever comes. I will reserve judgement until I see it for myself. I will have to assume that some of these buildings are better built than they appear. In the event of something crazy, my office is probably the best place I could be. The tallest building in Hong Kong, it seems to be rather state of the art. Lets see what mother nature will bring...

Okay Dustin,
You shouldn't scare your mother like this. - I don't know if a prewarning is better, or to find out from the news.
Be careful.
