@Caitlin, yes it’s a naughty comedy, low-brow if you will. I still think it’s funny as hell. I like these kind of comedies every now and again. Hell, I liked Something About Mary, that should say something….

@Mochi, huh,I had no idea. Thanks for the weather update!

@Caitlin

Yes, Ninja Nonsense is really a fun (if rather naughty) series.

You are partially correct about the difference between typhoon and hurricane. They are essentially the same type of storm and the naming convention is regional. There are several other regional names for this storm. But, a simplified definition is that typhoons are tropical cyclones in the Northwest Pacific and are west of the International Date Line. Hurricanes are tropical cyclones in the North Atlantic, Northeast Pacific (east of the International Date Line), and part of the South Pacific.

It’s nice to know that my meteorology college course finally came in handy…

Comedy? I’ll have to find it and check it out!

I think the difference between a typhoon and hurricane is that typhoons are in the Pacific and hurricanes are in the Atlantic.
