Comparing Frances to Hugo
Take a quick look at the projected path for Hurricane Frances and compare it with the 1989 track for Hurricane Hugo.
Get ready folks. Not much to worry about here (rain and wind), and it won’t be like Isabell which hit us dead-on, but for those who remember Hugo, there was [...]
In Your Own Words. . .
Every political campaign does it. But I am very gratified to see that the FLS, which has traditionally been both the clearing house and ethical watchdog for political letters and opinion pieces, has thrown down the gauntlet on pre-printed letters to the editor:

We Cure Weak Liberalism With Strong Communism!
Da, is glorious communist revolution for RED DEAL John Kerry, nyet?
These guys are having way too much fun with this. But I have to admit, this is the most hilarious piece of political satire I have read (red?) in a long, long time. But what makes this [...]
