Happy day to Calli and Burrell!
On Monday, Wilma became the season's 21st named storm, tying the seasonal record first set in 1933.
Holy moly. But I have a question: if it's the 21st named storm, how come it starts with the 23rd letter of the alphabet? Shouldn't it be Hurricane Uma?
They skip some letters.
Sophia, a friend of mine has a cat with the sucking/kneading issue. He started out especially liking knits, so if you weren't paying attention, you'd end up with cat slobber spots on your tshirts. They eventually found out he liked fleece even more than tshirt/people and got him his own, so whenever he starts up, they throw the fleece at him and he's diverted.
I tell them at least he doesn't hump them.
I hope the Zmayhems get unsick soon.
Shouldn't it be Hurricane Uma?
I believe they skip U, X, Y, and Z. And possibly Q. Pity. If we had to have this many hurricanes in a season, the least they could do would be to name one "Xena". Or "Zod". I'm not picky.
They skip q, u, x, y, and z in the naming scheme.
(Hugely x-posty, natch. Or should that be alpha-posty, since the alphabet ends after W.)
(Leading me to wonder, does the world?)
And super-lamely, the next one would be Alpha. Why not Aaron? And then, um Bbob.
Sophia Brooks - my cat used to do that. But she'd only suck my neck. I've no idea. She'd go nuts over it.
And then she jumped out the window of my flat.
Okay, Hurricane Zod would sort of be awesome. Especially if it roared onto land and yelled "Kneel before Zod!"
And then she jumped out the window of my flat.
Ack! How terrible. This just reaffirms my paranoia about windows.
c'mon, hurricane ZOOL.
