    You need a photo of the shuttle being hauled back to the VAB only to be stopped in mid course and turned back to the launch tower.

    There isn’t a nation on Earth that doesn’t have those frigging plastic chairs. At least they’re not white.

    I came home early from Myrtle Beach because of that scary storm. Shoulda stayed, because the next day was beautiful down there. The rain followed us to New Jersey.

    What you call a chair knocked over I call two hours of content on CNN or Fox News.

    Good One.
    The photo was fudged! LOL
    The chair was never knocked over by tropical storm ernesto.
    In fact the photo was taken hours latter when everything was nice and dry!
    People that live in florida move everything inside before a storm or strap it down.
    Ernesto was downgraded to a tropical storm in florida but created lots of flooding.

    Mr Brill, now that you mention it, I notice several clear signs that the photo was Photoshopped…

    Somebody give Katie the boot. CBS would be better off with John in the hotseat. I like this news.

    this is just being cynical. You act as though the media over hyped the storm or something.

    Storm??? I thought it was just Dickhead Cheney giving another speech where he blames the Democrats for his hemorrhoids.

    Forty-five miles inland from the beach @ Edisto and the trees didn’t even move, but the talking heads on TV were yelping and biting the heels of Ernesto all the way from the South Atlantic. I’m surprised some exasperated hard blowing circle of wind hasn’t turned on the media and wiped out NYC and/or Atlanta, GA.

    But Fox News said it was gonna be a big and dangerous storm. They wouldn’t exaggerate.
