Hmm.

While us here in the Atlantic are using up our hurricane names, the folks in the Eastern North Pacific have barely used up their list of names. I took a gander at this year's list and found something rather, shall we say, interesting...

Adrian
Beatriz
Calvin
Dora
Eugene
Fernanda
Greg
Hilary
Irwin
Jova
Kenneth
Lidia
Max
Norma
Otis
Pilar
Ramon
Selma
Todd
Veronica
Wiley
Xina
York
Zelda

Finding more and more names on these respective lists that appeared most curious, I checked to see if I could find a, er, familiar name on another list (not my name; I've already been a hurricane).

And I found it waiting for me in next year's list of Atlantic storm names:
Alberto
Beryl
Chris
Debby
Ernesto
Florence
Gordon
Helene
Isaac
Joyce
Kirk
Leslie
Michael
Nadine
Oscar
Patty
Rafael
Sandy
Tony
Valerie
William

Ramon: *preens*

*then tackles Gorlim and bites him*

HA!

(but he is really v. amused about being a hurricane, BWAH!)

He's not a hurricane yet. His name's just on the list. If he's not a hurricane now he might not be one for another six years!

With the amount of the things that seem to be around at the moment? And heh, he has patience...OK, no he doesn't. But he's still amused!

*pats* Maybe he can bribe someone into putting his name on the Atlantic list. Although he's really close (http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2005/hurricanes/) to becoming a hurricane this year!

See, it would not be awesome, because hurricanes are not awesome things if you have to live through them.

Ramon, obviously, thinks it is. Silly boy.

...Ramon has, err, special meanings of the word "awesome."

I hope he won't be jealous of Tony if he becomes a major hurricane...

*nods* Ramon's a very special boy. *eyes him*

And of course he will be. This is Ramon we're talking about. *snerk*

Ah, well, it seems my whole family has a bone to pick with Florida considering I (Frances) have been a hurricane, my aunt (Wilma) is now a hurricane, and my mom's name is on the list for 2009.

I swear I had a great time when I went to Florida a few years ago!

Calvin, Dora, Max, Veronica, Joyce, and Michael are all also patrons, I will point out.

"Snow White" seems unlikely to come up, ever, and same with Littlefoot, so at least two pups are safe.
