It's central Florida. They're not monogamous anyway.

I *totally* misread the title of this thread.

I was thinking in the mode of the Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight, Baby.

In which case, the thread title should read: "Post Hurricane, Baby! Boom!"

In reference to a hurricane of posting exploding from us here on the off-topic forum.

"The power was out and there was nowhere to go. Central Florida couples did what many couples do when the lights go out.

So, there's a baby boom nine months after Hurricane Charley. Since May 20--40 weeks after Charley hit--the number of births is up 26 percent at one hospital compared with this time last year.

"The electricity being out, just like the blizzards up North, you have to play by Mother Nature's rules, I guess. Mother Nature's entertainment," said Mark Growe of Windermere."

Frankly I am most amazed by this...

It's like if people never have sex and don't know about contraceptives. Then, just because of a storm they get the sudden idea to copulate, with the result of having offspring. However, when everything is normal they don't do it.

Maybe they thought they were gonna die.

I imagine that if the end of the world approaches and we know about it ahead of time, there's gonna be a huge hedonistic f*** and suck-fest .

I'm not. It's just something to do.
