Hurricane Dean

Let's start with a bit of family history...

To this day, my parents claim I was dropped off by aliens in a sort of "baby exchange" program. The proof? The night I was born, there were several UFO sightings over Hood River (the town I was born in). Also, a storm called Hurricane David was making headlines during the summer of 1979. Clearly, all signs point to alien activity. As the story goes, they were supposed to pick me up on my 18th (or 21st) birthday, but a Y3K catastrophe on my home planet prevented this. No joke!

Now, fast-forward twenty-eight years. Beka and I are eagerly anticipating the arrival of our first child, Dean. Imagine my surprise when my dad gave me this bit of news.

Cheers!

Ah, well. And so the story continues. As I recall, Hurrican David formed before David was born. But, it appears I may be wrong. Be that as it may, my theory is the atmosphere becomes disturbed by the alien craft either upon entry or departure and results in hurricane activity either 30 days prior to or after the birth of the alien infant. As evidenced by the official accounts of Hurricane David, it formed 30 days after David's birth. I postulate that Dean shall likely be born 30 days after the formation of the current hurricane, Dean. I further suggest validity to the probability of Dean's galactic origins as is also evidenced by the fact that Dean's gestation has occurred very close to the same geographical location within which his father's gestation finalized. In conclusion, I advise vigilance in that special attention should be given to the night skys from now through the time of Dean's birth.
