Useless Umbrella

Saw this e-card and just had to laugh. If you live in Charleston (esp downtown), then you know how true this rings. There have been several occasions this year that when it rains, it literally floods. No, i'm not even joking. If you drive a sedan, forget about getting in your car. The rain mixed with the high tide causes the water to rise above car doors and people are wading down the street. Rainboots required. Being one of two people in my office that lives and works downtown, we are the only ones at work for the first few hours on these torrential downpour days. I guess we'll hold down the fort, if we don't all float away...
