I'm sitting in the Quality Inn in Baton Rouge, and ol' Gus is bringing the dirty. I took a run a few hours ago on the Mississippi River levee (may God give it strength) near the hotel and it was hot and sunny. Now, the rain and wind are picking up outside, and a tornado warning has been issued for this area. According to the news, it is still about 20 hours from making landfall. Be that as it may, it is still getting pretty rough outside already. I don't know how much longer cell phones and electricity will last, but I'll keep posting updates as long as possible. Jenny, if you are reading this... I love you and happy anniversary. I'll never hold the hand of another.
O Lord Jesus Christ,
As you saved your apostles from perishing in a storm by calming wind and waves on your command, so now keep us safe and sound in this storm, Hurricane Gustav. Protect us from the unpredictable elements of nature. Protect us from storm, flood, illness, injury, disaster, and death. Preserve us from all evil and harm for we, though sinful, are nonetheless the work of Your hands. And You together with your Father who has no beginning and Your life giving Spirit are our God in whom we live, move, and have being. Now and ever and unto ages and ages. Amen.

The pun density of your last three posts is overwhelming.
May God protect you. My eyes are fixed to internet news and your blog.
