And the trees came tumblin down

Here's the scene on the morning after Hurricane Irene, a few moment ago my neighborhood eruped with the sound of chainsaws and sirens and the town was out taking care of the mess and making it look easy with this great tree crushing payloader. There's some flooding and some downed trees but in all I've seen rock concerts do more damage.

Preparing for Hurricane Irene on Long Island

Went out to the local Walmart earlier to grab some last minute supplies for Hurricane Irene on Saturday but it appears like there was a run on the store for anything useful. I did manage to get a memo pad with Belushi on the cover wearing the college seatshirt from Animal House though (hopefully he'll help keep my house together!)
