HOUSTON (AP) – Reports out of Grand Cayman, which has been furiously pummeled by category 4 Hurricane Ivan overnight and throughout Sunday morning, via internet and telephone, reveal a picture of grim devastation.

So far, Ivan has caused the deaths of some 56 people in the Caribbean on its deadly rampage from the Lesser Antilles, across Grenada, on to Jamaica and now Cayman.

Yesterday the Governor of the Cayman Islands, Mr. Bruce Dinwiddy, declared a State of Emergency.

At 2 p.m. Sunday, the Weather Channel reported that the island had been lashed by winds in excess of 200 mph.

1. sounds really bad...

but why in the hell did the tourists stay??? meanwhile that evil bastrad castro has moved everyone from the tip of cuba to safe areas for the last few days. he has a well organized plan and unlike the usa-everyone has to leave-no one stays behind. so when this storm crosses cuba no one should die. that evil bastard!!!

2. I wish the only thing wrecked in the Caymans would be the bank where

the "deposits" of so many GOP tax-evading pricks including one of my Senators (Inhofe) have squirreled away their ill-gotten gains.
