Land Of The Lost/Hurricane Irene

As I sit here getting ready for 4 hours of 80's tunes on Wxpn's "Land Of The Lost" W/ Robert Drake I also find myself w/ one eye on the weather this weekend.
Since Monday and maybe earlier than that the weather people have been tracking Hurricane Irene as she began working her way up from Puerto Rico,by the sounds of it the east coast is about to bare the brunt of a category 2 hurricane tomorrow evening heading into Sunday.

Sounds like Philly will get a right soaking on Saturday night going into Sunday I'm faced w/ the prospect of another Sunday long run going by the way side which blows.....no pun intended and if it's absolutely pissing down the satellite dish probably won't allow me to watch much in the way of tv......good job I've got a ton of stuff on the dvr to catch up on!!!
