I don't feel obligated to read every thread. I'd have no time for anything else if I tried!

I don't think there is one person in this country that wants "help" from Blanco.

I posted what I heard and didn't editorialize...

I also said that I heard he saved some of the passengers...

but I am the one that originally posted it...but NOT to bash his ethnicity...

However, the bus lines, GLOBE...I think, is also supposedly in trouble from past problems...and maybe on of them is hiring people that maybe cannot communicate well enough---that when told a brake needs to be fixed...he doesn't understand well enough and doesn't fix it...

Just stuff that the Dallas PD...are questioning tonight..

I report ya'll decide.

Eh, I don't think there's a sulfur component to it. I know what that smells like, and that's not present.

Thanks ya'll. Was a big shock to walk in the house and see that! Can you point me to the story? Don't wanna ask for repeats. Wondering if anybody knows how it started.

A LOT of forecasts went bust on this one, so don't take it personal. The NHC sure isn't :-)

Then looks directly INTO the camera and says NOTHING.

At first I thought is was the folks down the street barbecuing goats & hogs. More like a compost heap that got too wet.

We were supposed to visit Sunbury, PA the day after the storm came through. Sunbury is the only town along the Susquehanna which didn't flood, because it had a rather large flood wall. They also had the world's largest Fabricated Dam, but the hurricane wiped out the million-dollar marina they had installed above it.

Needless to say, we didn't go, because the city was closed (flood gates shut).

Trivia: They were debating pulling down the walls, because they people along the river thought they were ugly, and they hadn't had flood since they started building it.

"It's like a combination of rotting vegetation, stagnant water, and rotting meat."

Sounds to me like the water is so rough that it's churning up 30 years worth of gunk from the bottom of the bay. And seeing as smell is the most provoking on the memory cells - you'll be ahead of the game the NEXT time you're in a hurricane!

I like the way he described it; failing to mention that they also rip off their foundations, fly thru the air, and then decapitate dumb*ss reporters who cant keep their hats on
