Bombeck was a treasure of wonderful quotes. Namely: “Anyone who can neatly fold a fitted sheet needs psychiatric help.” That’s the gist from my memory.
Not to be too harsh but if you buy a house on the east coast or along the Gulf shore when a hurricane hits you just have to put on your big boy/girl pants and deal with it. Get whatever insurance you can get and figure on rough weather now and then. But don’t come to the government for a bail out. Choosing to live in a beautiful place, weather wise has it’s pluses. But the minuses are dire and maybe dangerous. I sympathize with others’ problems but I don’t want to get the bill.
The ghost of Christmas past.
