Insane. I have no other word to describe this.


Kiteboarder Ian Johnstone takes advantage of the high winds provided by Hurricane Charley as the storm's leading edge nears Fort Myers, Florida August 13, 2004. Hurricane Charley strengthened dramatically as it neared Florida's west coast on Friday with 145 mph winds that sent tens of thousands of people scrambling to higher ground. (Marc Serota/Reuters)

5. I would be just as content seeing him smacked in the face with a
piece of stationary plywood.

6. Hurricanes are NOT fun.
If you have ever been in a bad one, you have seen the fury of nature and you are completely NOT in control. The damage...even just the cleanup,... breaks people...Charley is definately not funny!
