Wow, rarely do you see that. I haven't paid much attention to Ivan until the past 24 hrs. or so. I'll continue to pray it won't amount to as much as they think.

The State Superintendent sent a message to the media urging all Public Schools in the state of Alabama to close.

The University of Alabama has shut down today at 1pm CST and will not open up again until Saturday at 8pm. All classes cancelled. As of now, they are still planning on playing the game Saturday. However, Kickoff on the Quad has been cancelled, and they will not allow any tailgating on the Quad before the game.

UNA is closed Thursday and Friday also.

From what I hear from people in the Muscle Shoals Area batteries are not to be found in stores in the area. Anyone else had this problem.

One of my co-workers said she saw two women get into a heated argument over the last D-batteries at a local grocery store this morning.

These people are crazy!!!

Oddly enough, with two toddlers and 800,000 toys that need batteries I've always got a stash of everything from AAA to D. If it gets bad enough, I'm gonna start pushing them on street corners. Maybe I can pay for my kids college? At least a downpayment on their first used car?

The head of the ASHAA was on WJOX this afternoon. He said this was the first time in history that the organization had to issue a full state wide cancellation.
