Damn! gusts to 59 and they get Federal disaster assistance? Hell, we

we ought to appy too?

According to my map you weren't hit by hurricane Dennis..... maybe a
bit of tropical storm.... maybe.



Ed


According to the weather map he was about 100 miles from the "eye" of
a tropical depression, which is one notch below a tropical storm.

Charlie, there is only one photo on that web page, shown twice. Do you
have a photo of any damage you took after the storm? I could not find
one in http://deepsouthnet.net/images/.

Glad your antenna system came through unscathed during your spell of
increased wind. My neighbor came home from the bar, drunk, sucessfully
too. Glad you both are unscathed!

Hi Larry,
I intentionally posted the very same identical mage twice since there was
no damage and no change in the image even had I taken one after the storm
cleared. There was no damage here at all to the station in any way.

I NEVER realized my photographic prowess would cause such a stir which
included accusations of "misrepresentation" "spoofing" "nice try" and
comments about my "**** tower" "crappy installation" etc. I was even
ridiculed for not "being in the eye of the hurricane". Gee maybe next time I
can request a 200 mph cat 5 hurricane to plow through my backyard.

Be that as it may since human nature and the heart of man are such I simply
wanted to show that there was absolutely no damage.


So to "prove" there was no damage here is a link to a snap I just took of
the tower. Geesh Louise......

TY Ed....President Bush has authorized emergency disaster funds for our
county due to "increased winds!"

It may not reached that area but it was a large storm so you could get
dmaging winds hundreds of miles from where the hurricane hit. While it
looks like the pictures don't show damage, it could be further down.

Good God Almighty.....

What will it take to satisfy you folks? How about free airfare to
Mississippi and a personal inspection of my station? For Pete's sake!!!!!
