What's up - it's rampin up now biggrin.gif wish us luck.
Anyone hear from Havok, Panda, Roeelimizzle and I think Kylekonvicka? I hope they all had the common sense to leave that side of the city.
D-man, Ngofcukinway and I should be cool over here [Except that random tree through the house or big object thrown at us thing - kind like the lottery really] POC

Edit - At the edit time the news just posted live footage of surfers near the sea wall in Galveston still. Right on.

Well, I'm doing great. Got in from College Station about an hour ago. Wanted to stay up there for another day since school/work doesn't start for me till Wednesday, but someone wanted me home. Bleh. All we got up there was wind and sideways rain. It rained for a good part of Saturday. Cleared up yesterday and the weather today was oh so orgasmic. High of 75-ish* with cloud cover after 3 months of 90*+ highs. Weather for the rest of the week for southeast Texas should be pretty peachy with a high of around 80*.

A big chunk of Northwest Houston (Cypress, Champions Forest, etc)is still without power. A couple of gas stations are trying to gouge customers at $4/gal for regular 87 octane. Once reported in, those profits they made and then some will go towards a fine that they'll be receiving from the government. A lot of fallen trees here and there. People are lined up an waiting around gas stations and fast food restaurants that may have anything left to offer. Pretty empty out there on the roads. Cops are out and about pretty hardcore. Luckily my apt complex has clean, running water, and electricity. My gf's parents should be getting their power back by the end of the week even though they're only about 2 miles down the street from me. So yeah, north side is in pretty good condition. I heard the south side of town is pretty fcuked up though.

Last time I heard from Death was when he sent me a text message early Saturday morning say, "WHOO HOOO! EYE OF THE STORM!" and D-man's been calling me and checking up with things (appreciate it). I'm not sure about everyone else though. :\ 2 million+ people are still without power and some with running water.

Here are some pics from a local news station. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26643689/displ.../framenumber/1/

Galveston got pretty raped and torn up. I don't really feel all that bad for those that decided to stay and later regretted it.

WOAH!! That's what it looked like? No wonder....

Galveston (the beach area) Was raped hard... And some folks though it wise to hang out there... mostly surfers and people with intentions of looting. (BTW i believe the "Looter death toll" is up to 12 now laugh.gif Stupid looters rolleyes.gif ) South Houston was banged pretty hard, but Havoc and Panda are cool. I've been on the phone with panda, and havoc was wailing around in the back ground. Sounded like he was beating a cat with a guitar or something laugh.gif

I haven't gotten ahold of death sense that infamous message. I'm gunna drop by his house today. (i've got nothing better to do) I got several other messages from him the day before... One about his portch being wet. Haha! Ya'll dont worry about him though, He's in a second story apartment. (unless he gets water damage to his celica, he may shoot himself frown.gif ) lol, just playin laugh.gif

My shop finaly got power, so my 5 day weekend is over. And about time too, I have no money and no beer laugh.gif Enough food to last till payday though. But beer and smokes are NECIESITY arround my place.

Alex has been my amusement. Although he refuses to blow the rest of his gas on coming over to my house to bring me zip ties so i can work on my bumper mad.gif LOL!! J/P dude!!

02'Bluerolla's shop seems to be in order, i drove by a few times this week, i saw him throwing a bunch of branches in the street. Or maybe one of his brothers... IDK for sure, i didn't have time to stop and chat; i was following my boss to one of his properties.

We've mostly got LONG lines heading into gas stations (fuel-efficient celica is FTW!!) and fast food joints. Beer is scarce... So are smokes... not cool. not fcuking cool at all. (i knew i should have bought 2 cartons mad.gif ) w/e.

But power is being restored, and shipments are getting in. It only gets better from here.

Thanks 6gc, for taking a moment to care about us BTW!!

I texted with him on Tuesday a bit, still no power but he had just gotten the cell recharged. My guess is the cell is off to conserve battery power in case they actually need the phone for a valid reason other than us harassing them laugh.gif They were doing okay though, I know he gassed up Friday before Ike hit and they were okay on food.

well... I'll go harrass that mo'fo in person. I dont think he's been to my new place, so probably dont know where it's at... But he should know that he's welcome to crash at my place; that's why i have an air matress... Hell, he can wash my cloths, and cook my dinner while he's there laugh.gif j/p tongue.gif

Well thanks for that griff, that's about what i figured though. I just worry about his boys; it sucks to be w/o power; especialy with kids! i would know frown.gif

No need - I'm back. Miss me guys?
The Hurricane, as I predicted, was a punk by the time it got to the NW side of Houston but man it did some damage downtown and especially on the SE side of town down towards the water.
I still have no lights at the house [Just got them back here at work so I'll be on but somewhat scarce since I have a whole week to make up for] kindasad.gif .
Thanks to everyone who PMd, Texted, E-mailed etc to show concern - I will be getting back to everyone slowly over the course of the day.
Griffgirl had it right - I had to make one old cellphone battery charge last all week so I was only using it when absolutely necessary and it stayed off the remainder of the time.
Saw Alex last night so he's cool.

Just checkin in ya'll - thanks for caring. OH Yeah and the GT2 is quite fine snugly rested protected from the elements in the garage with the front lifted and the battery disconnected [Completely unnecessary as I predicted]. The LS took a few hits from the millions of flying shingles that were the biggest danger where I was [Looked like a ninja cartoon out there]. That thing is a tank - can't even see where it may have scratched the paint. biggrin.gif
Oh yeah and I almost got arrested two nights ago on a curfew violation - they are VERY serious about that BS - Sounds a bit Hitlirian to most sane individuals.
