I'm usually chastised for posting this early. But for you I can have the Dover thread up before this race starts!

[tubebender]

LOL... Complete with 500 posts. I haven't won this weeks race yet and to pick for two would be more than I can handle.

In keeping with our commitment to our Military I offer this story on a returning MEDIC HOME FROM AFGHANISTAN I think Medics are the most important members and rate just behind the front line boots...

[tubebender]

I haven’t been paying attention to Ike and did not know it had veered west with Texas in it’s sights. Last I heard RUSH was fleeing his little cabin this week...

[glock rocks]

Loudon updating doppler (mash refresh/reload, and it's always current.)

[NYTexan]

Thanks Grok...hope it’ll be a dry day!

[glock rocks]

Me too... I hope to pick some drivers who get to qualify :o)

[NYTexan]

Peaked out eh?

Yer a sandbagger fer sure!

[WSGilcrest]

Speaking of which, at the party yesterday was my pa who was a combat medic in Korea. My uncle, who piloted B-17’s over Europe in II. Another friend of my dad who flew 105’s in Nam, and the senior warden of our church was there, he was a C-130 loadmaster also in Nam. A very impressive group.

You have to look for info. According to the media, any storm that comes into the Gulf is going to NO. When they finally figure out it’s not, they drop it.

[LasVegasMac]

Thanks for da ping, looks great!

and somewhat familiar.......:)

[LasVegasMac]

Hopefully, Ike still has some 'left' in him.

Stay safe!

[tubebender]

Thank them all for my entire family. I am watching a Barrett Jackson auction. A stunning black Chevrolet Impala convertable went for $155,000

[SouthTexas]

He's (that just ain't right! should be she)in the recharge zone now. Wind up and swing by the weekend.

To follow up -

you stay safe too. Just took a look at a stream of Ike coming off of Cuba. That storm is way too intact for just hitting a bunch of communists and the spagetti models of Ike have Texas written all over them.

I’d recommend a generator, minimum 5000W w/a safety breaker.
(Thats what we had on the Oregon coast and it served us well for 20 years)

Hang on down there! I picked up a hand operated bilge pump yesterday and will ship it by Pony Express as soon as the stage arrives in Eureka...

[SouthTexas]

Will await it’s arrival!

How about a bucket of electricity and possible some sanity? The people down here are going bonkers.

[tubebender]

How about a bucket of electricity and possible some sanity?

A bucket of electricity will require a EIR, a Haz Mat plan, a interstate permit and about a dozen others but I HAVE notified the Texas mental health depart that there is a crazy man loose in south Texas...

[SouthTexas]

There’s more than one! Sheesh, you’d think some of these people had never seen a hurricane before.

I’ll be in and out, obviously, will post when I can. The power situation will likely dictate most of that.

[tubebender]

Man oh Man...you do have a full plate to deal with down there. Will you be evacuating? Our Prayers are with you and your wife. BTW, don’t forget to change your drivers...

[SouthTexas]

Hadn’t planned on going anywhere other than CC. May get locked in there though.

Thanks, I did change my drivers, probably the wrong way. LOL

Still cannot comprehend the idiocy along the whole coastline.
