Regarding massive blow jobs…

If you have a disc spinning counter-clockwise and another disc of the same size that is not spinning, and the two discs make contact.. the counter-clockwise spinning disc will slow down to half it's speed, while the stationary disc will start spinning at an equal speed, only in the opposite directon (clockwise). The total spin energy will be the same, but distributed to between the two discs.
If you have one disc spinning counter-clockwise and another disc is already spinning clockwise at the same speed, and they make contact.. they would both continue to spin in the direction they were going to begin with, and at the same speed.
If you have one disc spinning counter-clockwise and another disc of the same size and speed also spinning counter-clockwise, and they make contact, their spins would cancel each other out and both discs would stop.
In the Atlantic Ocean, we have very large Irma, but crawling NW at a snails pace, with Senor Jose of lower energy catching up to Irma.
Seems to me that the more those two hurricanes interact, the more Irma will lose energy until Jose is stopped.Another thing about the two hurricanes touching.. they will tend to repel each other in opposite directions. I would not rule out Louisiana getting hit.

The media have always tried their best to present the worst case scenario for every hurricane. The area I live has not been hit by a hurricane in 96 years, yet EVERY YEAR the overzealous weathermen decide to track about 3 hurricanes per year to hit this area - and are wrong.
Some other myths about hurricanes is it's not really the hurricanes that are dangerous, but the TORNADOES which come with them, and the FLOODING.
