Rita Update, Saturday 2:15 AM

You can only watch so many hours of hurricane news and just how boring is hurricane fluff? We just started watching one of the 167 new-to-us VHS tapes that Tom and Linda gave us. This morning's selection is Broken Arrow (1996) John Travolta and Christian Slater. The tagline is Prepare to Go Ballistic. Obviously, we still have power. Still can hear some rain which is picking up some and the wind; all sounding like a regular rainy day so far.

We are back to watching news while Gene makes a cup of tea. Seeing the horizontal rain in the reports from Beaumont take me back to Hurricane Alicia. That was a scarey day. Day -- this nighttime hurricane stuff sucks. Much more comfortable seeing what's coming.

Will finish watching this round of reports and back to the movie.
