[Shotimes] OT: Hurray for Dennis!

[Donald Mallinson]

OK, I am usually the first to say I LIKE brown grass, but if any of us 
like our Wheaties or Corn flakes and associated products, we should all 
be glad that Dennis (the hurricane):

1.  Was not as destructive as predicted.

2.  Is making its way up the heartland giving much needed rain to crops 
on the edge of failure.

We have had something like 1/2 " of rain in this basic season in our 
area of Central Illinois.  And while Dennis can miss my yard (the grass 
will come back) he can soak the surrounding fields.

Way to go Dennis, it is raining outside right now.
