Luckily it didn't flood where I live in San Antonio. However took the dogs to the river yesterday and it was raging quite a bit. Dogs loved it though

Are you up north? 288 and 45 south were both closed this morning.

 

I agree it was not as bad as Allison.

Texans are tough people. They will handle it, not like those whining lil biotches in Louisiana. Still welping about Katrina.

Once the levees broke on Katrina, it was 1000x worse than what we have here.

Maybe Louisiana should have tended to the levees before they broke. I bet we hear 1000x less crying.

Too bad the Central Federal Govt Army Corps of Engineers didn't maintain the levees.

 

The Feds really screwed the state of LA on that one.

"Dad, the river is flooding! What should we do?"

 

"Quick, everyone into the stilt-house which hovers directly above the raging flood."

 

"Shouldn't we just walk up the hill some?"

 

"Are you crazy? It's raining outside!"

 

:doh:

It's been bad in Fort Worth as well. I had tee times for Sunday and Monday, and ended up having to cancel the Sunday one.

I don't know, it hasn't been on the news. I'm in the heights and it's basically an island now. Sucks

Downtown itself is good. The areas just off of downtown, not so much. There was a little bit of water in some of the tunnels but most are open.

No sweat. Used to it. If my roof is leaking I don't wait for the insurance company to pay for it. I get er' done and then we can worry about whose fault it is after my family and property is safe and secure. Works every time.

You're right. With all those billions we had in the change cup, we should have fixed a decades long problem the government ignored.

Seems like your local and state government ignored it as well. Don't be afraid to throw them in the mix.

I do. From top to bottom. And I also blame myself and fellow citizens for not stepping up and holding them all accountable prior to Katrina. We are all equally to blame.

It's nice but it's in French.

 

 

It's Cajun French actually. Or as we like to say, coon ass French.

 

And if you ever meet a Cajun woman named Jole and she gives you a seductive smile, run away as fast as you fawking can. If she's standing in the doorway, jump through the window, no matter what floor you are on.

Good advice no matter what her name is.

quick! Run For Your FEMA debit cards!

Almost all that filth went back to New Orleans. They discovered quickly, in spite of Parker's pandoring, they were not welcome and would not get the free ride they were use to in NO.
