Hurricanes

Wow. Three hurricanes in the span of almost a month in Florida! I can't remember anything like that. Makes me wonder if we really do need the "life saving" capabilities of Weatherbug.

Also, makes me think that calling the University of Miami teams the "Hurricanes" isn't such a good idea. Sure, it's a cool name, and implies destruction without annoying any specific ethnic groups (tomahawk chop, anyone?), but also sort of makes light of some sort of potentially horrible event. That's why I think all sports teams should be named after articles of clothing, like the New York Knickerbockers.
