And what do we get from this tough guy named Frances? A total dud.

What a joke and complete waste of time this storm has become.

It's now expected to only have 70-90mph winds when it hits landfall near Ft. Pierce tomorrow night. Still a force to contend with but nothing like they told us.

Once again the government succeeds in freaking out the people, i.e. the sheep who all fled en masse to who knows where.

Baaaahhhh
So you think there is no chance it could rev up one last time before it hits?

Well thank gawd! That's actually GOOD NEWS!
