Slip On Your Rubbers

Oh, we’ve missed you, lover. Our days and nights haven’t been the same since you left us, and the heavy rainfalls are nothing without the impending doom you add to the mix. Every time we catch a glimpse of an azure tarp flapping in the wind or overhear a generator sputtering in someone’s yard, our minds flood with flashbacks of our nights of passion. Andrew (swoon), Charley (gasp), Wilma (ahhh), and others did things to us we had never experienced. They got us wet, gave it to us rough, and ultimately tore us a new one. And since today is the beginning of hurricane season, we say show us what you got. We’ll be at the Storm Prep Expo 2008 getting ready for you.

Experts are telling us this year will be a doozy for sure, so dozens of local, state, and federal agencies will be at the Miami Beach Convention Center (1901 Convention Center Dr., Miami Beach) to help residents get prepared. From 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., hurricane supplies will be for sale and up for grabs in raffles, but admission is free.
