Yeah, but let's wait 'til after the storm. She might be talking out the other side of her mouth.You've got to remember, this is Texas. You don't ask for more than you need.
A lot of you may remember the famous Texas Ranger boast attributed to Captain W.J. McDonald, "One riot, one Ranger." That's the attitude. But, when you need help, you know its coming (unless its 1836 and you're inside the Alamo :-) )

Texans don't have to ask if their neighbors will come to help - they know they will.
