VOLCANO ERUPTS IN SOUTH BROOKLYN
BLOOMBERG URGES POST-EARTHQUAKE, PRE-HURRICANE CITY TO BRACE FOR POSSIBLE PLAGUE OF LOCUSTS, “OTHER HEAVY BIBLE SHIT”

We thought we’d take a stab at the whole Onion headline there. I know, I know—keep our day jobs. We will. But for real, Reader! An earthquake AND a hurricane in NYC in one week? We rarely embrace cursing, but what the F? Seriously. What. The. F.

In all seriousness, for anyone in New York who isn’t planning to leave town in the next 24 hours (which they’re actually advising us to do) and hasn’t yet checked this out, visit the city’s Hurricane Evacuation Map. Not only is it VERY well-designed (nicely done John Keefe), it’s handy on the whole ‘Hey, I wonder if my building’s going to flood/fall-down/be smote by god’ front.

Whereas we’ll be doing a little bit of disaster prep at the studio today (boooooo, Zone C), happily, our apartment is JUST inside this little Carroll Gardens bubble of safety. So, if you’re around, feel free to come on by Sunday. We’re planning a day of special hurricane-ready Smoky Jo’s Chili, Dark + Stormy’s, and some potential huddling in our windowless bedroom. Ooh! And maybe we’ll watch The Proposal if it’s on FX again this weekend. Oh, Sandra.

And for real, ya’ll—be safe this weekend.
