May 26, 201511 yr comment_687221 Great to hear that you "weathered" the storm Shelly! Some of that news footage was pretty scary so I'm sure that more than a few of us were thinking of you. Report
May 26, 201511 yr comment_687239 Good to hear everyone made it through. Tornados are one part of the midwest I don't miss. Me? I bought a boatload of tubes. And some transformers. Report
May 26, 201511 yr comment_687243 The video coming out of Houston is pretty much nuts. I remember being in Houston for a Hurricane once and I do not remember anything close to that level of flooding. I think the problem is that we have already had a LOT of rain over the last month or two so the ground was already completely saturated and the bayous were pretty full. (It wasn't as bad as Tropical Storm Allison which dumped 38.6" of rain in Houston over 6 days.) I am so sick of rain. Report

May 27, 201511 yr comment_687266 Please send any and all unwanted rain over here to California. Thanks! Report
May 27, 201511 yr comment_687394 Caught a fish yesterday So we decided to buy a house on the water nearby: [emoji2] Edited May 27, 201511 yr by Dreadhead Report
May 27, 201511 yr comment_687399 Well the offer hasn't been accepted yet but I am guessing we'll get it after some haggling. No parties until we get the basement finishing done and get more bedrooms. This summer is looking family only for a bit. Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687407 Expensive fish! Good luck! I've often dreamed of living on a lake. Report

May 28, 201511 yr comment_687427 Congrats! I like the way you think -- team doesn't-fuck-around FTW! Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687430 Maybe I'm confused, but I thought you bought a lake house already? Congrat regardless! Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687431 We were one house from the water (across the road). Now we are going to be on the water. Edited May 28, 201511 yr by Dreadhead Report

May 28, 201511 yr comment_687495 Nice Chris. A Peninsula house? I am waiting to board a flight to Dallas. My third United flight in three days, and every one of them has been at least an hour delayed. Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687497 Nice Chris. A Peninsula house? I am waiting to board a flight to Dallas. My third United flight in three days, and every one of them has been at least an hour delayed. Perhaps fly to a Delta hub and hope you will get reticketed from United to Delta Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687502 Yeah, I had a great streak there where I was flying home from Atlanta more often on Delta planes than on the United ones I was supposed to be on. It was nice. Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687517 Myabe I should try to get a job at Georgia Tech so I can fly Delta instead of United. Report
May 28, 201511 yr comment_687519 but then you'd be in atlanta, which is one of the few american cities worse than houston Report
