crazy hardhead
Ya gotta love the "crazy hardhead"
Ray Wilkinson, 67, a retired, disabled carpenter and Marine Corps veteran, toughed out Hurricane Ike from what was almost ground-zero (Surfside Beach). Sitting there drinking beer, he saw "all kinds of goodies floating away, like my refrigerator . . .." But anyone who ignored this particular evacuation order is a fool, right? Wilkinson agrees. "I didn't say I had all my marbles." "I'm just a crazy, old hardhead." "I don't advise it unless you're nuts." He added that he was never scared and that he did not pray. Houston Chronicle

No doubt he had no worries, as the weight of his brass balls held him down.

It doesn't say whether the guy is Christian or not, just that he wasn't scared, and didn't feel the need to pray for God's help. God helps those who help themselves and are immune to hurricanes.
