Tropical Storm Erika — Same Spelling as my Wife’s Name — Coincidence? I Think Not [VIDEO]

When we were on vacation, my wife said that she didn't want to go home. It looks as though she got her wish... sort of.

While we were in the tropics, all the talk was about Hurricane Danny, which basically fizzled out before making landfall. The day we got home, I heard that Erika was out in the Atlantic. Turns out they were talking about a tropical depression, now a tropical storm.

I'd like to issue a major warning for anyone in Erika's way! I'll never forget that she was telling me a story about a verbal disagreement she got into a long time ago in which she said to her adversary, "If you wanna play 'who can be the bigger {female dog}', I'll win!" So please, don't argue with Tropical Storm Erika! She'll hand you your butt!
