‘Hurricane Punch’ Is Mean Whacky Humor
San Francisco Chronicle – Jan 29, 2007
tmpl –>(01-29) 10:24 PST “Hurricane Punch” (AP) — Tim Dorsey: The fun-loving obsessive-compulsive psychopath named Serge Storms has become fixated on the destructive power of a “conga line of hurricanes” bearing down on Florida. Equipped with a stolen Hummer and some hurricane tracking gear ripped off from the National Hurricane Center Serge and his drug-addled sidekick Coleman are hell bent on cruising inside the peaceful eye of each of them as they cut their destructive paths across the Sunshine State. But since Serge can never resist devising fiendishly clever ways to slaughter people who need killing he’s bound to cause more havoc than any mere act of God. “Hurricane Punch” is Tim Dorsey’s ninth novel all of them featuring Serge. When we last encountered him in “The Big Bamboo” (2006) Serge was obsessed with reviving the movie business in his native Florida. But his obsessions never last long; in fact some of them (Roman Catholicism magic eight balls becoming a newspaper columnist) burst upon him in a blaze of passion and vanish in minutes… Equipped with a stolen Hummer and some hurricane tracking gear ripped off from the National Hurricane Center Serge and his drug-addled sidekick Coleman are hell bent on cruising inside the peaceful eye of each of them as they cut their destructive paths across the Sunshine State.

Whip out those transfers in a hurry with Tornado
Seattle Times – Jan 29, 2007
It is a small circular plastic reel that contains a single cable that can be extended or retracted in much the same way as any spring-loaded reel operates. At the end of each retractable end is a USB 2. The idea is to simply plug one USB end into the PC from which you want to transfer the data and the other USB plug into the PC to which the data is sent… There is no software to be installed on either computer. The Tornado has all the proper drivers and data-transferring applications built directly inside. There’s no software to load no drivers to install no cables to buy and no installation Wizards to follow. You just plug it in and begin transferring the data. After plugging in the Tornado each computer will display a From and To screen that lists all the files and directories on each computer. The screens display the files on each computer in a top and bottom split-screen display.
