How does a hurricane see?

metadad · by Bill Berger

setup: How does a hurricane see?

[Dr. Shakes] qua opthamologist Is 6 or 7 better?

[Hurricane Katrina] sitting on edge of seat 6

[Dr. Shakes] changing settings on machine 5 or 6?

[Hurricane Katrina] 6

[Dr. Shakes] shining bright light into [Hurricane Katrina]’s eye Yep. OK. Keep looking at the light. Yeah. I know it’s bright, but just one more minute.

[Dr. Shakes] satisfied. OK. I think that settles it.

[Dr. Shakes] turning up lights So, it’s diplopia. Probably a concussion. Have you hit your head or some…

[Hurricane Katrina] Well, I ate a small city a couple days ago.

[Dr. Shakes] pulling out something That’s probably it. For now, you’ll wear this eye patch over the other one. It’s not a fix, but at least you’ll stop seeing double. Maybe after the concussion and swelling go down, this will resolve. For now, it’s wait and see.

[Hurricane Katrina] still concerned OK. When should I come back?

[Dr. Shakes] offering Oh. We’re moving to Florida? I hope that isn’t too inconvenient?

[Hurricane Katrina] leaving Sounds good. I’m always over there anyway. I’ll see you in a couple weeks.

punchline: With one eye.
