Hurricane Sandy: Parties Canceled, Parties Still Going on in Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach County

Not sure if you noticed, but it's a little windy and wet outside. "Sure," you say, "it's been raining since July." Yes, it truly has, and we've continued to drink and dance our damp, sad lives happy, even with these downpours. So, why would today or yesterday or tomorrow be any different?...

Not sure if you noticed, but it's a little windy and wet outside.

"Sure," you say, "it's been raining since July." Yes, it truly has, and we've continued to drink and dance our damp, sad lives happy, even with these downpours.

So, why would today or yesterday or tomorrow be any different? Well, because Sandy's come to town. And she's a hurricane. Or is it he's a hurricane... Either way, some stuff's been canceled. Read on for what's going on, what isn't, and what's coming later.
