As they say, Enigmatic ...
If you go through a lot of hammers each month, that doesn't necessarily mean you're a hard worker. It may just mean that you have a lot to learn about proper hammer maintenance.

Garbage bags and beef jerkies are all you need to weather the storm.
Garbage bags inflate. Or maybe not; I'm not sure. But I think I saw an episode of McGuyver once where he built an airplane out of garbage bags, bamboo, and a gas grill and flew it off a cliff. So it must work somehow.
And Mac was eating a beef jerky while he made it.

No, riri. Not at this particular moment.
However, that could change at any second. And is starting to look a bit "grey" outside.

Of course.
I was just being stupid with you. Gosh.
p.s. Actually what I mean was more like, "completely contrary to nature, reason, or common sense; absurd; senseless; utterly foolish", as oppose to the simple "prone to exaggeration".

I have no idea what the hell you're talking about, bandana.
Did you mean to suggest "prone to exaggeration"?
P.S. Get bent.

"Preposterous", bandana?
P.S. Nice obscure reference which no one else has any chance of understanding there, btw.

Thanks, Troosha ... and I'm not 100% sure.
It appears we are, and we aren't. It'll likely reach us eventually, but by the time it does, it will be lucky to be a category 2.

Yup - sounds like you're tucked in safely now...

More seriously, if you are in the storm's path I hope it doesn't it too hard.

It'll be stuffy. If you have the air con on all the time, you'll help run up a bill for poor Mom to pay. Besides, no circulation encourages the mould.

You did the right thing. Cardboard is good until it gets too soggy. By
that time, you might want consider strengthening your backstroke.
