Default RE: Houston - Are you there ?

On west side of Houston, up while it roared through, hid behind a big fat oak with the wind meter, 97mph, watched a couple of trees get blown over across the street, had gen, lots of gas, power out three 1/2 days. McDonalds was open Sat. afternoon, commercial strip of Westheimer had power still, gas stations opened Sunday with gouging prices, not to mention some stores with the same for water. Attorney General here I come! Still lots of damage, power off. Put my gen. for sale on Craigslist, had it sold within two minutes, along with 30gals. of gas. Yo Barry, why did you have to go to La. for gas? We had plenty over here. The stations owners were smart, they all had power but waited until Sunday pm to start selling at gouge prices. I got gas yesterday at Kroger's for 3.33 however, everyone else seems to be around 3.69. Bodies will be found in Galveston and Bolivar, those the media showed in the bars and houses that would rather party. DUMB AND DEADLY!
