Re: Here It Comes (Was Re: OT Batten Down the Hatches)

Here is s preview to chapter 6 of the Island:

Willow woke to the gentle rocking of the waves against the boat. After all these years on the ocean she feel the change in the air when a hurricane was building. It was if all the spirits and animals in the ocean took a deep breath waiting for the Goddess sweep through. Oya, the hurricane, may be over a thousand miles away and just barely formed, nothing more than an infant, but already Willow could feel the difference around her. Clare’s prediction computer model was brilliant, ingenuis and huge leap forward in hurricane prediction, however it had left out one compotant that the scientist could never comprehend. Hurricanes weren’t just some half formed frontal system flying around the world - hurricanes were alive - they were born, they lived, they died, only to be born again. They had a reason, a purpose for being, they had a “Calling.” Clare’s model didn’t work until Willow was able to integrate the hurricane’s reason for life into it.

Oya - the west African Goddess of storm - she came to the new world with the slaves and never left. Oya had a reason for being ....

Just thought I'd update. It looks like this storm is gonna come walking right up the street by my house. They are saying it's gonna be worse than Camille was in 1969, and she has pretty much defined Badass Storm for the last 36 yrs. Dennis is being described as "the worst storm since the 1909 hurricane." Max sustained winds are currently between 145-150 mph depending on your source. Storm surge is predicted to be 10 feet.

They're showing Pensacola Beach on the news. The water looks like chocolate milk.

I'm sitting at my computer, watching out the window as the rain gets heavier and the wind picks up.

Gonna come a blow.

"Let's begin at the beginning, shall we?" [Giles] said [to Dawn]. "What has Buffy done that is so out of the ordinary?"

"Well, when she came down to give the big, daily motivational, 'we're all going to die' speech, she didn't. She said stuff that really was motivating about all the stuff we're fighting for, like puppies and apple pie and a world with no Celine Dion music in it, which, I could totally get behind, but it's not like her. Then she told us all we have to take opportunities...like the one she said she took last night to ask you on a date which she said she's wanted to do for years. Creepy, huh?"
