Is this a joke?

This is either a REALLY bad April fools joke or we are really expecting a typhoon within the next 48 hours. Someone obviously forgot to let the typhoon know that it is NOT typhoon season. As a matter of fact typhoon season is not until July and usually the big storms come around the end of the year. Weird weather. Today when we learned that there was a storm out there heading for us we began what has now become a familiar routine. Filled the cars with gas, made sure we had water, candles, batteries, food etc... as well as picking up anything in the yard that might fly away. During typhoon season the grass cutting guys keep the palm trees pretty clear of coconuts but right now the trees are full of them. I mean who expects a typhoon in April?! I just hope the coconuts don't become flying missiles. If you do not hear from me for a few days , don't worry. The cable and electricity on Guam will go out if the wind blows and oftentimes when for no reason at all. Please pray for Guam, Rota, Tinian and Saipan that we do not get blown or washed away. I will send a quick note every so often as long as we have power, just to let you all know how we are doing.

BTW- Go Gators! Uof F gets to play Ohio State for the NCAA Basketball National Championship. Sometimes it's good to be from Florida!
