So you walked the stage 4 years before me. Did they change Houston Lee's name? My sister graduated from Houston Lee also.
I'm not lasting beyond the 1 am intermediate advisory tonight.
"Lemondropkid31,I have cricket's in the garage.Turn on the light-they love me-turn off the light-they fall asleep.You alone there(((Hugs)))"
LOL really? I know they tend to make noise when the lights are out. Is that a sign of love? :O)
There is going to be an enormous amount of glass exploding down on city streets. In a 2000-lb truck bomb in London in about 1993, 72 buildings were damaged and 500 tons of glass came down.
<<< When I was at Goodfellow>>>
Did someone just say Goodfellow??
Was that BEFORE or AFTER DLI???
AP et al
They'll probably sue, like the families of illegals who died in the California desert.
I don't recall hearing any strange noises that far ahead of a hurricane. But the humidity might increase until the air is all misty, especially when gale winds from the hurricane are moving in.
Not long ago, I bought an old 9 passenger 69 Caddy that was originally sold in SA. When last seen, being driven off by the new owner after I realized that I had nowhere to park a 30 foot car on a regular basis, it didn't have any problems.
Remember, in Texas, nothing ever rusts out, even crappy domestic POS.
The wide lanes and broad shoulders are for huge farm equipment.
I spent a night in Shamrock Texas last year. Driving my sister and her truck of stuff across the country.
I've let this subject slide all day.
You could pretty much hear the herd collectively thinking "I'll set the alarm 10 minutes early so I can beat the rush", Wednesday night when they went to bed to a CAT 5.
Roads clog up, people get where they're going, roads go empty, happens every storm.
You can almost set your landfall clock by the TV News imagery of full and empty freeways.
Hey there - younow see the best I have. Keep waiting for a GOES satellite update, but their latest pic is now 90 minutes old... was hoping to get an intermediate plot from that. :(
XM Traffic
http://www.xmradio.com/programming/neighborhood.jsp?hood=traffic
It runs a minute traffic breakdown, short ad, a minute weather breakdown, another short ad....and repeats. Updated when conditions warrant.
XM also has an Emergency Channel 247 for Breaking Events, and just added a Red Cross Channel 248.
I have a friend who still freaks out when I tell her Seattle traffic from my car in Los Angeles....I repeats every two minutes, so I can get an update before the local station in Seattle repeats their traffic report.
In Texas, can't y'all do that about any time anyway?
In more situations than in any other state, yeah.
I still chuckle when I recall a bit I heard on the radio news on day. A woman investigaing strange sounds went into her garage with a gun to find a man trying to steal her bicycle. The news played an audio clip of her describing what happened next: "He told me to go ahead and shoot him, so I did."
No charges were filed.
Technically speaking, you can even shoot people for spray-painting grafitti after dark (under the "criminal mischief" statute), but most folks consider that overreacting.
Depends on your definition of "Okay."
Someone will come collect her, especially if she figures out to call 311. Houston has buses and cabs circulating to pick up people like that.
Mabe that is what I am smelling? Because it really smells like rain.
