Some residents of Key Biscayne, south of Miami, bagged beach sand to protect their homes from flooding. Others expressed no desire to evacuate. "We've been through so many of these things," says Jim Brewster, a longtime Key Biscayne resident. "I'm not going anywhere unless...

And there's a government plot to hide the truth, led by a scientist (Rade Sherbedgia) with a Dracula accent. (Because, of course, real Americans don't do cover...
Mark Partridge�Miner remembers lying on a beach in St. Augustine, Fla., looking at the stars and wishing he were fighting in Iraq. So he dropped out of college and volunteered. When he arrived last November, he spent months grudgingly guarding a gate to Baghdad International Airport and yearning to be on the convoys heading into the red zone. His early posts, some of which are addressed to the insurgents ("The whites of my eyes are the last thing you will see before you kiss the feet of my God ..."), are zealous and antsy for action. His later ones, after...
