Hurricane Wilma

Whoa, another bad Hurricane came through Miami. This one left 98% of Miami-Dade and Broward Counties without any electricity. Unlike Katrina that crushed my car (thanks to falling branches from trees), this one just took the electricity (normal for a Hurricane). The night Wilma came by I drove my car around the complex and found a nice spot away from the trees and between two vans. I wish I had done that when Katrina was coming. Of course, the two vans got hit by a row of wooden fences that got blown away. Their windshields were smashed, but my small Chevy Aveo was safely protected!

After three days without electricity, the power is back on. But more than 90% of the population is still without any electricity, and many will be without any for a month. The FEMA folks forgot to gas up their trucks, so even though they brought trucks with water (and charge billions to the taxpayers for that), the trucks were in the parking lots ungassed. After a few days they got around to distributing some water (but why? The water here is not contaminated) but they did not bring ICE or any fresh food, which is what people who don't have electricity really need. I feel sorry for those that are relying on FEMA for any help. What a bunch of incompetents; but then FEMA is being run by a guy who failed as a horse show organizer.
