Florida Only Needs One Fay - Another Intervention Letter

First the letter and more after the jump

Dear Tropical Storm Fay,

In the spirit of my ongoing efforts to talk storms out of their paths of destruction I must implore you to be reasonable and reverse course, missing all land and then head toward the North Atlantic. I have milk, eggs and chicken in the fridge. I paid good money for all that stuff! I really would like to keep the electricity on to preserve them.

::: horror ::: OMG(osh) if you knock out the power I can’t blog … ::: Iwillnotfreakout :::

Plus, Florida already has a Fay. She’s fun, cute, eloquent, cool, smart … fun. And she doesn’t scare people. Tropical Storm Fay … you scare people.

Did you know that you scare people … little Ms. Tropical Storm Fay? Well … you do.

For example, I went to the grocery store tonight and all the bread was gone. And … hello … Where are the bananas? … anyone? ::: poof ::: gone.

The water aisle was barren and D batteries are being traded in the parking lot for non-perishable luxury items. So what if I got a brand new R2D2 paper weight out of the deal!? People are scared and it’s all your fault Ms. “I wannabe Cat 1 Hurricane” Fay.

Remember the cute Fay I mentioned earlier in the letter? TS Fay … you are not her. Florida only has room for one Fay and we already claimed her. Plus, if you give her a bad name … I don’t wanna’ be you when her Mom finds out.

Just sayin’.

So, Tropical Storm Fay, go away and don’t come back another day. ::: cheesy grin ::: great alliteration huh? :::

Sincerely,

Randy

The picture in this post is artwork I stumbled upon today. I thought it was ironic to find them since I drew them during hurricane Frances four years ago on Sept. 6, 2004. Those spheres are some of my first drawings. I titled it “Spheres of Roy G. Biv.”

Also, while I do have a little irreverence in trying to “ward off” storms through stupid blog letters of intervention, I don’t in any way want to minimize the destruction they bring. The humor is an attempt to deal with a tough “possibility” and doesn’t discount our need to prepare, pray for safety and mourn those who were/are being victimized by the storm.
