How long must we endure their lies and hatred without fighting back!

We must endure them until the Kingdom comes to fruition. Then all the chaff will be burned.

Every time one of them opens its mouth, all I hear is the voice of the antichrist, ranting and raging and spewing lies in his all-consuming and implaccable hatred of Truth.

Haha LOLOL I am taking 105 into Montgomery and turning onto 1488 from there. Its supposed to run into the woodland and there is another road called Gosling that runs into Research Forest, which is where I have to be.

Never attribute to evil what can be attributed to human fear and stupidity.

You have reason to be concerned....some friends of ours who turned back to Houston arrived in their neighborhood to see thugs breaking into all their neighbor's boarded up houses....the looting has already started! Such a thin veneer over our "polite society"....already cracking. Too bad our National Guard is stretched too thin to be patrolling there and nail some of them...set an example!

Tell me about it. I drive a suburban and we went to see my son in Calif. It was like bullets going around me and the lanes were so narrow that the lines were almost touching each tire. Scary. How do they breath?

No real change from the 1700 track.

The vortex data runs about 3 miles SW of the Hurricane Center's plots, on every storm. Not a real problem, but I wish one or the other would define a standard and both would either use D.DD or DM.MM format.

Flipping back and forth either takes forever or else limits how many windows I can have open.

God, yes! There isn't an equal to it anywhere else that I'm aware of. And they're some of the best maintained roads in general.

As bad as all this is we ain't seen nothing yet. The knee jerk and blowback will be awesome. There will be massive construction for evac routes out of all major cities. Think about Denver, you have a hard time even when it's not rush hr.

Hold on to your pocketbooks, it's going to get ugly and the MSM will drive it. This thing should be wakeup call for all of us. The MSM is not our friend.

Acutally, they'll push for mega-fleets of buses, light rail and commuter rail before they push for more road spending (never mind that Nagin left all his buses flooded).

When I lived in Texas, I almost always took Texas secondary roads...more interesting, and nicer drives a lot of the time than the interstates....

Being in a strong hurricane is a bizarre experience. It's not easily forgotten.

Could that be because, unlike Texas, other states have things like grass, water and hills. The last time I was west of San Antonio and north of I-10 I saw more rattlesnakes than trees.

JUST KIDDING
