Exactly.... When Hurricane Rita was a Category 5.. our town was expected to flood.

It got chaotic!
We freaked!

Imagine driving three towns over just to get gasoline...Batteries and bottled water are truely extinct here....
so when Rita shrunk to a Category 3... and we only got a few inches of rain.. we were joyous!!!
so we celebrated... it was much needed too..
I am sorry if the MargaRita party offended a few... but hey,
our intentions were true blue.

And I believe that a qoute from Hunter S. Thompson sums it up....

"For those of us who have been up all night..we are in no mood for coffee and donunts... we want strong drink!"

Best of Luck to everyone!!
Ciao!
