I lost track on the last thread about the proper way to tar 'n feather a d@mn yankee. Proper etiquette dictates that we clear up the indoor vice outdoor method. Still got "bees" in my fingers from cuttin' wood.

I wonder if Mexico is getting back any of the illegals.

These hurricanes have opened my mind to grasping the full depravity of man.

Yes -- from the looters and rapists and murderers to the slanderers and venom-spewing freaks in the media, Democrat Party, and Hollywood. A whole gamut of humanity's worst on full display.

Don't be too sure. The FNC weather guy thinks it that north turn today was only a wobble due to the eyewall replacement cycle. He is not the end all but it does appear to be turning back more to the west again. That could also only be a wobble but . . . that could go on an on.

Webbles wobble but they don't fall down.

btw I like the FNC weather guy. He is like a sportscaster doing weather. Or even a bookie.

At the top of the thread, there is a link to a Houston Flood Risk map. Beyond that, maybe one of the TX FReepers knows that area.

I hope they have the aircraft - some chatter I heard earlier made me wonder if they really do have the planes lined up.

Unfortunately if she stalls at the coast, or just off the coast that is a lot of rain and wind still for the area she is stalled off of. Lets hope Rita doesn't become Allison's bigger, meaner and uglier sister!

Unfortunately, she will come to a crawl over TX, if not before landfall. At least Katrina kept on moving after coming ashore. I think there will be some big flooding problems throughout E TX/LA/AR.

"Did you try to explain to him? "

Yup. But, he talked back to me like I was being hysterical so, I just wished him good luck and quit talking to him.

" I felt like I was stealing cookies from the cookie jar."

Me too.
