Not past 50, still too old for nonsense. Cornbread and iced tea have taken the place of pills and 90 proof. The President is a fink. |

A Texas mayor was telling people yesterday if they didn't evacuate, write their SS on their forearm with a magic marker so their body could be identified after the storm. LOLOLOL! If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Pretty bad when you find out you need an axe in the attic of your second story house in order to get to the roof. Much like Katrina conditions. I wonder how many have flood insurance in Houston proper? Going to be costly. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18755 | Where the water is only knee high, I've seen some people towing dogs who are having a great time splashing around. Ever rescue cats while it's raining? I have. If they're not declawed, you better have thick clothing. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | I have no pity for people who live in areas known for flooding in hurricanes. Stupid is as stupid does. The Indians didn't have big settlements in the San Francisco area because they knew the ground shook there sometimes. Like it did 100 years ago and will again. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Well, watch what happens if they get a 500 year rain event in Vegas. I've been there when it flooded.

So you think Vegas is a well known flood plain, then? Nice try. We have an area that floods here every spring and the same people are on the news bitching about it. Here's something: MOVE! If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

This 10000000000% I have absolutely ZERO sympathy for anyone living in these areas. They know the inherent danger but yet accept to ignore it. Then when the inevitable happens, they want to come crying for help. GET LOST!! They get what they deserve. |

I know a guy who lives in the area, as soon as it hit he got in his car and drove 1100 miles to Ohio to stay with relatives. I've asked him before why he lives there and he has intelligent answers like 'I dunno. Too lazy to move' He even keeps the plywood to nail over the windows right in his living room at all times so neighbors won't steal it. Stupid is as stupid does. If you take a risk, you may lose.
