Problem: New Orleans , Post - Gustav We did n't get the worst of Gustav but we 're still dealing with our share of the effects . So much of the city is still without power . It 's a little weird for me to drive home at night and see power only partially restores when I pass subdivision after subdivision . I assume many of the stores have n't opened , not solely because of electricity issues , but because many workers have n't returned either .

Who is Gustav ?

A: Gustav is a Hurricane .

Problem: It was quite a shock and I feel like all the progress I had made before I left has been totally wiped out . I was also aware though that I want to do a long run tomorrow and so I did not want to push it too hard either . So instead of speed I have gone for length and have just posted off my entry for the HIGHLAND FLING RACE 2009 !

Why is the narrator not running very far today ?

A: They are saving their legs .

Problem: Erik was dressed up in his claiborne pin - striped suit ( Thanks to Aunty Kelly and Uncle Tai for an awesome birthday gift that came in very handy ! ) . He looks absolutely adorable , at least that 's what Mummy says ! However , even with all the practice sessions , Erik was too tired to hold his duty as the ring bearer .

Why is Erik all dressed up ?

A:
Erik is in a wedding .
