David Gregory looks like a monkey.

He acts like one too.

[kassie]

Wow.

No, not even a strong breeze here. We've been out in the driveway watching people walk past.

"I always think of that broadcast of the Hindenburg, 'Oh, the humanity!'

Give Geraldo time...he lives to top it! LOL.

Nothing's ever perfect, but what we're seeing in Texas are competant people managing the evacution and working with the Feds rather than obstruct.

I'm just grateful that, so far, Shep and Geraldo are keeping the drama notched down. Though the storm has barely begun to hit.

[mware]

Will it be too deep if it goes over their heads and washes them away?

There arrogance in the light of mother nature in all its force is stunning.

She's at the base on Mars.

[Tuxedo]

Looks like a Louisiana landfall, so the surge will be to their east primarily. Still, not too smart. Trees could block their escape and they could easily get caught if it pours over the wall.

You still here? I thought you were out rat hunting by now ;-)

[CindyDawg]

I like him and Shep a little bit. They both make me laugh. It get's old sometimes though.

[fishntex]

We had been thinking of going to a video store and renting a bunch of Eastwood, Bronson, and John Wayne westerns to watch for the weekend

Great choices too. Are ya'll in the path of this storm?

[blam]

"Anyone know if an earthquake effects a hurricane?"

A tsunami on top of the storm surge...hmmm.

[Ichneumon]

We had a few sprinkles earlier this evening. Not enough to get the sidewalk wet. Now there isn't even a breeze.

So far this is really anticlimactic.

The Houston Reliant complex ia already being staged for post-storm activities. Supplies and such are being trucked in now.

What's going on........I just lost the "vote" for the TV (unfairly I might add) to two of my GrandOnes.

[A Citizen Reporter]

"I wonder what the cameramen with them think. THAT would be a good book!"

I thought that Geraldo has a brother on his production team? At least he used to.

[monkfan]

Coincidence? I think not! ;)

[RDTF]

LOL!

Quake was WAY south of Brownsville - in Mexico. Not in the gulf.

He's letting them roll into the trap :-)
