Hurricane Irene? What hurricane? People were fine in Virginia Beach. Look at the size of that white suburban

I like how at first he's trying to make it seem worse than it is - like he's struggling to stand up right and walk in the winds. Then you see all the people running by with ease lolol. Stupid media hype.

In all honesty, I actually thought there was far more damage than everyone is making it seem. A lot of places had minor damage, but isn't that a good thing? Thousands without power, over 40 people dead and a lot of flooding in the upper North East. This was hardly a near miss. If this hurricane was a "dud" as some would make it seem, I would hate to think what a true cat 2 or cat 3 would do.

40 dead? really? Not saying your wrong but I thought I heard it was only like 5.

Currently the death toll is 40+

My office is so busy with claims

Finally got electricity back at home

I'm sure these people think this hurricane took far greater a toll.
