HURRICANE SEASON, ROCKS!

How do I find these people? Or more importantly, how do these people find me.......
So, we stopped into Walgreens to grab a contact case (which first of all is funny, because i brought enough stuff to live here for 6 months and the one thing I forgot is a contact case...anyway...) and our check out girl was chatting us up about Hurricane season. She first lectured us on the do's and dont's of preparring for a hurricane...."Make sure you have lots of cash on you at all times, you never know when one will hit and the ATM's go out and you're screwed" Then she went on to let us know how thougourghly excited she was about the approaching hurricane season. "June 1st is the beginning of hurricane season and we're gonna have a rockin' one this year. It's been 2 years since one has hit and this year is gonna be great!" Yes, she said the exact words..."we're gonna have a rockin hurricane season this year" Wow. Really? I mean.....really?
I met someone today who seemed pretty normal who told me this attitude is actually not that uncommon around here. However that would be the equivalent of me getting excited about the tornado season in St. Louis....."Tornado season is gonna be awesome this year. I can't wait to see my car being tossed into the stadium by a rockin' funnel"...................
