People play in strong ocean waves in Atlantic City, N.J., as Hurricane Earl heads toward the eastern coast. (click title to entry - thank you)
In a sea of foam people are being this silly. I don't believe the Governors understand how fool hearty their own citizens are some times. I strongly recommend always taking the threat to a single life seriously. This is the kind of disregard and dare-devil attitudes that exist in our society. When authority makes acts in responsible ways it really does cut down on such 'risk' taking by citizens. You won't believe what goes on sometimes. I thank the NC Governor for making the tough decision. I heard her speak before Earl arrived and she stated, "This is a serious storm and we will take it seriously." Those words are taken to heart by her citizens. She did a great job. Her words saved lives. I guarantee you they did. All that has to happen is for someone to be in a car when a road floods and there goes the loss of a life. There was significant flooding and I guarantee you when the assessments are done the damage to the Outer Banks will be no joke.
