Hey sluggo, you're sitting on Galveston Island aren't you?  I wonder how the fishing is in rough weather like this?  Kite flying is going to be great!

If/when you die, does this mean Rick is in charge?  Does this site have a contingency plan?  Can I at least get an "un-detectable/safe to use" ISP address out of this?

Just curious....

I live 30 minutes sw of Houston and 'bout 65 from Galveston. About 50 miles from the eye center. which is sixty miles wide. I guess I'm gettin the eye.

In the unlikely event sumpin happens to me where I can not return to duty It's Rick's baby until mid declares he's in charge
at which point a bitter feud will ensue and the victor shall have the spoils. :show  :show  :show  :show :jam

Good luck men, and Godspeed.

All joking aside, stay safe.  You still have more smilies to add.  And as Ron White says, "It ain't that the wind is blowin', its what the wind is blowin'.  If you get hit by a volkswagon, it really don't matter how many sit-ups you can do."   :hide

Now, can you send me all the "smiley codes" and grant me access to the secret lab and send me your guns before 11?

Randy is OK, they are however still without power. He has sent me a number of text messages. He can now atleast get a cell signal at his house, before he couldnt. His house took some wind damage, fence blown down, roof shingles missin, but no flooding or anything serious.  Hopefully he gets power back on soon.

Tell Sluggo not to worry, that I have everything under control.  That, if nothing else should reassure him.... you know, one less thing for him to worry about.

Poor sluggo, he got power about a two miles from his house at work, but no internet, His companies servers are at another location and they have no power....

If anyone sees his FEMA check, please forward it to him.
