Im screwed
Sucktacular. We have like 9 computers in my house and we dont even know if we are going to be able to take any of them. This is seriously going to suck.
That seriously sucks guys, I hope you can get your stuff out of the destruction path.
That way I can get a small boat and motor around town, looting and pillaging while talking like a pirate

Just pull the processors (if you can pack them safely), the memory, vid cards, and HD's and you'll be better off. Should be able to fit them in one decent sized box.
He fucked them up with Katrina, and now he's trying to fuck them up some more where most of them evacuated to.

Although I am worried for all of you people down there and hope you stay safe, that made me laugh waaaaaaaaay too hard.

This kinda thing is what makes me glad I don't live 15 minutes away from Galveston anymore...although I do miss the chocolate malts at that olde-timey drug store in Galveston. And the Botanic Gardens rocked...they will be missed.
I hope you Houstoners are safe!
Seriously though, hope this doesn't suck as much as the previous one

It probably won't, since where it's hitting isn't below sea level.
Nature's pissed at Mardi Gras. First New Orleans, since it has the real Mardi Gras, and then Galveston since it has the knock-off. I think someone tried to get Mother Nature to "show her boobs" for some beads and this is her response.
As i told Baj last night..
Its kinda like God is pissed at just "Winging" NOLA and not wiping them out..now he is "Going for the spare"

I laughed my ass off.
My house is boarded up, Im starting my packing, going to pack my clothes in my computer case I think, then a bag full of my valuables.
That way I can keep everything, I combine utility with the desire to get my computer the hell out of there, and everything is good.
Pesco's thinking about going to Austin. What a lame ass.

Most tech personel are being instructed to remain in the area as well, though I'm not as worried about us since our main site is north of Houston. We have people in Tech that live in the mandatory areas, so I'm not sure what is going to happen to them.
We are the only 24/7 bank in the nation and our CEO is dead set on keeping it that way it seems, even with this thing coming.
It is a total mad house where I am. I'm gonna do my prep shopping at around midnight tonight, it is just crazy to go now. I haven't decided if I'm gonna ride it out at our Ops Center or at my house. Not that it matters since they are about a mile apart. Pesco fucked around with this message on 09-21-2005 at 05:38 PM.

Suddenly, the earthquakes we get here in Cali don't seem that bad anymore.
But they're more dangerous, because we don't get any warning--they are "come as you are" disasters. I find it fairly tough to be sympathetic to people who had the choice to leave and didn't. And I'm not just talking mandatory evacuations, which will always come too late unless, like this one, there's just been a catastrophe to energize folks. It's not like you can't see a hurricane coming for days in advance.
--Satan, quoted by John Milton
But in all seriousness, I hope you all ride it out well. I for one would like to hear from our southerners as soon as possible after the landfall.

There was much rejoicing when DrPaintThinner said this:
I tried to call my family who live in clear lake (hour south of Houston), but the phone lines are all jammed, so I can't really talk to them about what they are doing.
Cell phone or land line? I've been having problems reaching my wife on her cell, but I haven't had any problems calling people over landlines thus far.
This is one of the few times where I've found text messaging more useful than actually dialing someone's number. It gets through when phone calls don't.

And in case no one has said it, it is 165 mph winds now, up to Catagory 5.

It's not something people hear about.

I fear for my Reltives out in Montana since Yellowstone has gone into a more active period, When my Aunt and Uncle were here a week ago they mentioned that the dome(I think thats what they said, booze helps the memory not) has risen a mile, and that my Coz had to start school Late because the school had damage from an earthquake. And Ol' Faithfull is starting to be a Un-Faithfull. Volcanos in the rockies are bad deals, They have a tendency to be Calderas I mean it is a one in a million chance, but still it's not nice to see things happening.

On another note: A friend of mine refuses to leave. He says he wants to "experience" the hurricane. And I think its going to be hilarious when his house is on the news as its floating down highway 270 and hes on his roof with his 20 dogs.

I think it's much more foolish to make a conscious choice to live in places in which serious disasters are inevitable--whether it's on top of major faultlines, below sea level in hurricane territory, or at the foot of active volcanoes, if you live there at all, you're just begging to lose your property, life or livelihood.
I mean, you can see "The Big One"-style disasters for years in advance. Pvednes fucked around with this message on 09-22-2005 at 04:52 AM.
