Re: My 10:31

For entertainment purposes alone, I think we should replace our current presidential nominees with Eric Swallowell and Ben Shapiro.

After all the years, waiting hopefully in anticipation that I may finally have a random LSD flashback.

Swallowell versus Shapiro.

Shapiro is appearing before a Congressional committee?

Go ask Alice when she’s ten feet tall..

also probably the worst forecasting of a projected path I’ve ever seen.

That is patently not true. A lie.

Now hearing even more through the grapevine from those in my industry.
It’s been a rough go for those who deliver to you safe water and take away your human biowaste.

The guy I work for is a big dog with one of the really big corporate water/wastewater operating companies in this part of the state, operating many plants.
He’s been on the clock for days, sleeping at the shop.
He says, “Everything is f’d up and I mean everything.”

Out repairing storm-damaged water plant components. Been a while since I’ve been out in the heat. Sheesh.

Mayor White and Houston are giving Centerpoint down the river. I mean don’t you know they have only restored a million peoples power. That is BS on Houston’s part. Trees down over lines, homes blown apart, poles need replacing and the list goes on. Shame on Houston and White.

Your Muslim update for the day. “Hey Muzzie, what ya think about democracy?” This took place in the UK this week. Mean while in France the Muzzies tried to burn down France after their guy WON. Coming soon to a country near you.

I spoke with someone this morning whose grandson is a lineman out of Oklahoma. They are in town and the best way to describe the situation is a clusterfark. It was reported that crew was waiting in a parking lot for 5 hours in Houston, then dispatched to the Moody Center in Galveston to wait for several more hours, then… Read more »

Homeowners you Axe? I just sent $2884 to my Homeowners Insurance outfit. Up 52% in 5 years but I guess I can’t complain Huntin’ Buddy pays about $4800 for one house! BUT it is in Galveston County, replacement cost about $400K My Replacement cost are $249K and $259K, $508K total. BTW; Houses built before 1920 have a surcharge even if… Read more »

I actually found a guy to work on my TV antenna. He came all the way from Montgomery today, although he already had a call out in this direction. He thinks the three of the long arms which the storms folded in (from the proper extended position) could be causing the loss of several channels. He’s coming back with a… Read more »

The Houston media only interviews the loudest whining and moaning about storm damage and lack of utilities. I’m going to assume there are millions in this area with their shoulders to the wheel working hard to clean up and grateful they are alive. Thank the Lord this little Cat 1 cyclone will serve as a wake-up call to those who… Read more »

Hubby hooked up our little gasoline generator and put a portable ac unit in my bedroom so I can at least have one cool space. Our elderly neighbor’s refrigerator is also being powered by our house. He isn’t at home today, so I guess he’s found a cool place to hang out.

Gotta take care of that sweet man.

I just got the oil changed in my generator and so far so good. There is a light on that says it needs service, but I just changed the oil so I don’t know what it could be. It has been running almost constantly since Monday morning. Now that I have the correct oil, 5w-30 fully synthetic, I am not… Read more »

I figured out how to get to the Internet, but I don’t keep my phone on all day. Generator ran like a champ until about 11 last night. We went outside around 1:30 and he checked the codes … For some reason the battery was”critical low”. He was out first thing this morning to get a new battery, but when… Read more »

Yep, I would love to have a whole house generator, a buried 500 gallon propane tank.
And run a line to convert to a gas stove and gas water heater.

I’d love to have a Genrac, and would for sure but I’d have to have a big propane tank installed since we don’t have natural gas. I just think the tank would end up being a pain.

I’ve mentioned this before but if I still lived in the Houston area I’d have a Generac. I don’t really need one here but if Pea River REA looses it’s mind and goes green, I’ll get one for here. 😀

Walking past the big TV in the Den I see this headline; Lifelong Democrat Switching to GOP. Then; Lifelong Dem Says She is Now Voting GOP As She Slams Admin’s Handling of Israel.
