"Good God"...that what we all said when we flipped on the TV on Friday morning and realized, in the words of Paul Simon, that "..the weatherman lied...".
'Katrina, the storm that was scheduled to crash the MTV party this weekend in South Beach had decided suddenly to include Key West in its' itinerary.
Nevertheless..we are grateful, it was a minor brush with a strorm that could have dealt us a much worse hand had it had taken more time to strenghten or had dipped just a little lower in latitude.
What happened to Colby and the candle in the Grotto?
Did his wife say, "Bruce, don't forget the grotto tonight" and he thought she said "lotto" and trundled off to the 7-11 to get a few tickets.
Anyway, we're still here. I just got my power on at home a few moments ago, not withstanding a brief tease this afternoon but I'm grateful for it now. In the bar tonight my friend the photographer Mike Forti told me about an old timer he knew in the Virgin Islands and after Hurricane Mariyln hit one September he didn't get any power till February. That makes a day and a half withou juice seem very tolerable indeed and there will be Robert Albury tonight. "Good God Y'all!"
