    Hi Laverne and Orchidians: 

    I know I just cannot believe that another Hurricane has affected
    Florida once again.    I have a dear friend that lives in Tallevast,
    Florida and I hope that she's not affected.   I just e-mailed her to
    see how she's doing. 

    First, Hurricane Charley, then Hurricane Frances, and now Hurricane
    Ivan. I think that the State of Florida certainly has been through a
    lot. 

    My thoughts and prayers are with you and your Family during this
    most difficult time.   My heart goes out to those who have lost their
    lives and family members to the Hurricanes.   You're right about
    tornadoes, my Mother had a tornado touch down in 1995 and it
    destroyed her entire house.   The amazing thing we all laughed about
    later on, was that a set of drinking glasses we had bought her for a
    birthday gift, didn't even break.   The tornado happened in
    Lancaster, Texas.  She had put some clothing in the dry cleaners and
    was never able to get them back.  She also checked out some library
    books and they were all destroyed as well.   Natural disasters are
    such a mess!!     She, my younger brother and brother survived -
    thank God. 

    However, several of her neighbors lost their lives.   I live in the
    State of Missouri and about a month ago, we had a Tornado Warning, I
    called the Raytown Police Department and they told my fiancee' and I
    to take cover.  We went to our basement downstiars in our Apartment
    Building and fortunately after about 30 minutes we were told the
    tornado was headed   to Oklahoma. 

    I just wanted to say that I will keep you in my thoughts and
    prayers.   May God be with you. 

Best wishes,
Tina
