  • I <3 Rent.  I have the two-disk CD set memorized.  It's in my CD changer in the car permanently.

    I have a hurricaine kit that I made last year right after we moved.
  • Hurricane warnings are annoying because you're under them for daaaaayyyyys and nothing happens for daaaaaayyyyyysss, THEN the storm hits. And no matter how prepared you are for it, they're scary as hell to ride out.

  • I was obsessed with the Rent soundtrack in college, as well as the movie. I haven't listened to it in years.

    [QUOTE]H told me that no one pays attention to hurricaine watches or warnings.  Because we're dumb Floridians.

    We're like that with tornado warnings. Our friend was visiting from Seattle one summer, and when the sirens went off, he was all, "ZOMG! Shouldn't we run for the basement? Do you have a flashlight? GUYZ?!?"<div>
    </div><div>FI and I were just sitting in our chairs with our laptops. We barely looked up. I said, "Nah. Sky isn't green, wind hasn't picked up, and we have power. Sit down and get comfy. False alarm." He looked at me like I was crazy. Sure enough, the sirens shut off a couple minutes later.</div>
  • Petal in there were tornado sirens in Cincinnati. They tested them the first Wednesday of every month at 12pm. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF A TORNADO HIT AT 12PM ON THE FIRST WEDNESDAY OF A MONTH>>??? People wouldn't believe it. That siren is like the boy who cried wolf.

  • In HS my mom and I were on the east coast and a hurricane came. It wasn't even that bad of one but I watched porta potties fly around and trees fall. I also walked down to look at the water until the condo manager came running at me yelling to get inside. Not sure why my mom let me do that.

    Floridian's attitudes towards hurricanes is encapsulated in the discussion I had with my parents when a category 3 was headed directly towards our island when I was 12

    Little Muni: Are we going to evacuate?

    Little Muni's Parents: Nah

    LM: Should we like, tape the windows up or something?

    LMP: Nah.

    LM: Should we buy some bottled water?

    LMP: Nah.

    LM: Should we at least throw the (PVC) pool furniture in the pool so it doesn't blow away

    LMP: Whatever.  If you do, you're the one that has to dive down and drag it up later.
  • RENT FANS - I bought THIS for $5.00 at Staples. Best $5.00 ever spent.

    <div>WHAAAAAAT?  Jealous.</div>
  • I did stock up on things and fill the tubs with water when Irene hit. Only because people in the Hampton Roads area had nothing but horror stories about when Isabell hit. We were only out power for 24 hours, but plenty of people in the area went weeks without it.

  • That's what happens at school MK. We do drills but then a watch or warning comes and noe one pays attention or is actually being safe. Or lockdowns. They stand and look out the window during a lockdown. Pretty sure the guy with the gun can see you there.

  • I love RENT.  And Wicked.

    Sorry, H called.  
  • I saw RENT when it came here and it was the run with both Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal reprising their roles, a few years ago. I sat in the fourth row. It was fucking brilliant.

  • y'all, I am so fucking drunk.  
  • I would love to see Rent live. Is it still showing?

    No Angel. That link I posted is to the Last Broadway Performance.

  • The production that I saw was on tour but Anthony Rapp and Adam pascal came back for one last tour. I cried and my heart twitterpatted the whole time.

  • When I was a kid, we learned about earthquakes and had a homework assignment that was about the earthquake plan each kid's family had.  I had to make something up because my mother said: "We don't have one.  We'll be fine."
  • Beachy a tornado hit Hampton. Everything ok by you?

  • I'm jealous MuSu.
  • Pretty sure Anthony Rapp will be 90 and still come back for "one last tour"

    but I'm still jealous.
  • Is Pinterest being weird for anyone else? I haven't seen any new pins in a couple days, and I know there's no way people haven't been pinning.
  • Yeah totally fine at my house MK, thanks.  I didn't even get the thunderstorms here, just some sprinkling of rain.  It completely missed us.  However my friend lives in Hampton but is out of town, so we have no idea how her house is.

  • I've got pins!  
  • Anthony Rapp will always be Darryl Coopersmith to me.
  • Haha true, muni! But really my heart was beating for Adam. Mmm. I love listening to his voice in rent and aida.

  • I have 3 new pins in the past 48 hours.  Definitely fishy.
