Hurricane Gustav (or Tropical Storm)



My thoughts on hurricanes in general:

1: Except for the rare occasions when it really hits us, 90% of the time, it never hits us, meaning the U.S. (get it). Its always that (insert name here) Caribbean Island that gets floored, and the US weathermen and weatherwomen just say (oh, so and so got hit) but Galveston may be hit with a tropical storm.

2. Radar dopplers can tell a lot, have you ever seen a real Hurrcicane dopler. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Hurricane Mitch: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Hurricane_Mitch_1998_oct_26_2028Z.jpg

Thats what the doplar should l0ok like

3. The excitement of a natural disaster: It may cause destruction, but lets face it folks, its exciting to deal with it, even if we over-exaggerate. Its really fun to think we are in Defcon 1, panic mode. Why not, you only live once?

4. Whats in a name? Are their certain storm names that instill fear? instill mockery?

Gustav, Eduard (homo), Faye (Female corporate business women), Mario (I made that one up), Andrew (watch out folks, its Andrew)


Thats it for now folks, check back later for new posts and have a good weekend.

Welcome to the blog

Here is it - the first blog post .. this is pretty lame. Usually those that have to do this end up with an amateur blog .. but thats exactly what we are going for.

Where did the name come from? One day, shooting a low-budget rap video in Galveston, TX, I was in a reflective mood caused by hunger. At inopportune times, I would question the meaning of life while we were getting ready to shoot a scene "Its about patience, right?" and other unnecessary blabber. So Jake nicknamed me Proverb.

Later that day, I was asked to roll a joint, I had enough for 3 joints and I failed on all 3 attempts -- here is the summary:

"The 3 Doomed Joints (late night) " (May 12, 2007)

1. the first joint shall be given to the earth (cops came to the beach)

2. the second shall be given to the pocket

3. the third shall be unsmokable

Second interpretation:

1. the first joint shall be buried in the sand (cops came)

2. the second shall fall apart in thy pocket.

3. the third shall be unsmokable.
