Just got power back (never realize how much you miss the PC and TV) and I can honestly say....that was a sh*t kicker. Spent last week cuttin' trees off my neices' houses (one a total loss) and 2 friends' houses are just.....gone (Galveston). Had to go down to the coast 3 days after the storm to repair a lift for the relief and it was a shock.

My house made it through ok (my oaks had us worried for a bit though). Word of advice....It's best to be drunk when a hurricane comes through.....A few Ibuprofen and you can still cut fallen trees up the next morning but ya seem to forget the really scary sh*t.
Thank God you are safe, my friend. I was worried about you! :)

Glad to hear you made it through. The house making it through is always a great bonus, but it's the people that really count.

LOL Glad your ok Joe stuff the painkillers have a few beers.
Glad you made it safely.

Be nice to the dawg fans when they come to town.
I'm beginning to think you dont live in vegas anymore unless the coyote in new once was an imposter that played EF.cheers
Glad to hear you're OK. Are you not supposed to say that you discovered great literature or had some sort of learning experience in adversity?

I'm with you though - getting drunk is probably the best choice.

Ike Sucked.......surely that is very harsh!! He may not have been a commander with great tactical or operational skills, but as the Supreme Commander of a very complex coalition, few could have bettered him. And not the worst US President, by a long way.
Best wishes from Rothenburg, Bavaria...exquisite place!!!
Say hallo to the Getrunkenmeister for me KK! Rothenburg is probably one of my favorite cities in the world.

Oh and I really like the hurricane survival advice. I am glad you made it through ok.
