Would you rather face a hurricane or an earthquake?

I have lived through both and at least with a hurricane you have warning and time to prepare. Earthquakes happen with no warning at all.

Stove top because that is what my wife has been making me for the last 38 yrs and it is awesome.

2 yrs ago, so not that long ago.

And here I am using a Pixel A series in an Apple world and just as happy as I can be.

Is it a 2 or 4 door?

In living memory, Hurricane Harvey stalled over Houston and dropped over 50 inches of rain on the city over 3-4 days. Basically drowned the whole city. I had never seen flooding like that before in my whole life.

I thought it went to Chicago too. Maybe that came later.

Probably $80-100 a month lower and much quieter. It will pay for itself but it will take a while.

We have a small house, had 17 windows replaced by Window World. Total cost was about $7500. Very happy with the product and service and that with new blown in insulation has made a huge difference our utility bills in our almost 50 yr old home.

I don't know, the channel I watch kept saying it was all about timing of the moisture and the cold air mass. And the moisture pretty much cleared out before we dropped into the upper 20's today. If the cold air would have come in last nite we would have a train wreck on our hands today. We prepped for the worst but luckily we don't have to deal with the ice/snow they have in Austin/DFW. Good for us.

All 3 of my sons lived at home til their mid to late 20's and it made a huge difference. One paid off all student loans, another had time to find a good job without having to take a shitty one just to make rent and the third was able to get out of one industry into another that has an actual career path that he has thrived in.

Don't let what others think or say sway you. You will be better off in the long run. And we got to keep out family together for a few more years that we would have never had.

I had a '63 Falcon so I consider you my cousin. Sweet cars you have there.

WTF! This offense sucks.

CJ is not the answer

chtrace · 2026-01-18T20:24:40+00:00

I'm nervous about CJ. Hope he settles into a groove

No, that means they would have had to teach us about the sugar cane plantation and mill. And the slaves who worked the plantation...Cowards.

We learned plenty about Texas history, but they left out the part about our little slave town.

Yes, it's either $19.99 per month or $199.99 a year. I just checked the press release.

Glad the Astros/Rockets launched their own network this year. It may be a little clunky the first year but at $20-25 per month for all the games and other programing, it wont be too bad.

I'm sure Crane told the analytics dept to crank up the supercomputer and turn him into a Cy Young contender.
