I was actually wondering how it was in your neck of the woods. Just remember, fallen trees aren't necessarily due to storms...the Skunk Ape is pretty powerful...

I'll keep in mind that the X-Files and other shows with a large "F" for "Fiction" agree with you, Rob.

 

We're starting to get more of Fay now, and the worst is yet to come. Flooding is inevitable, I'm pretty sure. It's going to pass right over us, and the ground is a bit saturated with water right now. Fay is supposed to be here clear through to tomorrow (Wednesday), so I suspect that it'll get really wet sometime around then. School is cancelled for Wednesday, too.

 

*Looks out window* The good news is that the rain isn't coming down sideways or anything; it's pretty close to coming down straight. The bad news is that there's a lot of it, and that the ditch in the back yard is really starting to get deep with water. Mosquitos are gonna suck for the next few weeks with all of that stagnant water lying around...

 

Edit: So today marks day two that my county has been all but shut down due to Fay. It also marks the second day of nothing but rain. Tomorrow the county will still be shut down, because the stupid storm still won't have left. It's odd that I'm complaining about this, seeing as this is supposed to be the first day of school and all, but I'd really rather not have a repeat of the 2004 hurricane season when we had to cut and trim from all sorts of student holidays in order to make up the days we missed due to hurricanes. It isn't even that bad out there; gusts can't be more than twenty, twenty-five miles an hour. A school bus could totally stand up to that!

 

Oh, and on a side note: The ditch outside of my house is almost completely filled up, now. Flooding is starting to look like an inevitability, especially if we get a third day of this crap. I'll snap pictures when it's all over, and you can all commiserate with me about the mosquito issues due to a couple hundred gallons of stagnant water lying around behind my house.

Aww! Thats neat.

 

@Tofu

Hope all went well with you and your family and that every stone still is on its place.

So I had some Cocaine for the first time last night, and I was bouncing off the walls. That stuff is nuts.

Just say no to both types of cocaine, Rob. It's bad for you, regardless.

 

Seriously, that stuff'll give you a heart attack. I had a friend accidentally kill himself by drinking too much Mountain Dew. Got addicted to it, he did.

Yah, my friend and I have agreed to never drink it again.

Umm...ahh..eee...argh

Umm...ahh..eee...argh

LoL ... and ... Wow!

 

@Rob & Tofu

Energy Drinks?!

 

This seems to be a popular place to travel to for american and british tourists in austria. If they just dont expect too much: NSFW

Okay, do any of you know a person like this:

 

On Fridays, I usually go out to lunch from work. The last two times I have, I have seen this one particular guy walking down the street. He's always wearing black clothes, black sunglasses, and to top it all off, a black leather jacket. Mind you, that I live in Houston, TX. The heat down here this time of year is similar to that of a jungle due to the humidity.

 

Guess you got to look cool, even if you have to sweat to do so. But damn do I have to resist the urge to yell out at him: "Hey budy, you don't look cool, you look stupid!"

 

He kind of reminds me of another guy in college who used to come to school during the summer wearing his black trench coat.

Yee Haw! A fellow Texan (lurking) in the forums. I do believe most of the Houston skyline has its buildings lined with microscopic magnifying glasses to make the pedestrians "fry" during the day

Don't worry about it- most people associate folks yelling "Yee Haw!" with jackasses.

 

Haha, good to hear Tofu Not too sure Tex will agree though

A perfect example of randomness
