The Stanley Cup final is being played between the Oilers (Edmonton) and the Hurricanes (Carolina) and so far the Hurricanes are winning. I hope it's not an omen ;)

Soon there may be protests that it's insensitive to name sports teams "Hurricanes" ...

We named them the Hurricanes after Hurricane Fran didn't read the "instruction manual" and bore down on the center of NC as Cat 1 hurricane.  People like the Scorpions lyrics "Here I am, rocked you like a hurricane" as a theme for the team.  

Redneck Kockey on Tobacco Road.

There are trees still down in my yard at the edge of my property from the 90 mph gusts and the constant hurricane force winds that made my attic hum like an organ pipe.

Well...soon there may be protests that it's insensitive to name teams the "Oilers", if oil really does get expensive.  ;)

ROFL!  I never thought of that.  

Hurricanes in June...please, no.  It's too damned early.
