(both CNN quotes)
anyone want to place a bet whether Tim will be on his plane coming home from New Orleans on Monday? Right about the time the hurricane is due in LA?
and anyone want to bet Dan will be thinking about renter's insurance again?

There's a hurricane due in LA? I'll warn Eric and Mari.
Renter's insurance is always a good thing! I came home one day last month to find an inch of water in our bathroom...luckily it leaked out to the hallway and not into our bedroom! ;) And I had a friend who's upstairs neighbor's floor collapsed into her living room!! You can get a pretty good deal through Geico for renter's insurance. ;)
Dan has his car in storage, I think. Not to mention E's household goods. But it's the car that is likely on Dan's mind. oh, and probably E's safety.
and Jim, I think E&M would look forward to the rain, so not to worry.
