and a few others on here, too...

Hope it doesnt suck -too- bad.

My area of town should sustain winds of 75 mph. YAY!
 
Im in the Woodlands. My girl is on her way over from Katy. Figure if we're stuck being housebound for a few days at least we can hang out, lol.
 
If you guys wind up in SA shoot me a message and I'll show off the good food around here. Can't offer a place to stay, unfortunately, but if you're hungry I know where to go.

Thanks Jeff!

The wind is really starting to whip up out there now. Wouldn't be surprised if I loser power any moment now. My wife is actually sleeping through this. LOL But I want to keep an eye on all these dang trees. Luckily, no huge oak trees. Just some willows. But they're kind of close to the apartment.

Good luck in the Woodlands J! I've got friends in that area as well.
 
Hope everything goes ok for you guys...

Had to drive through tropical storm hanna last week heading to Ocean City. That was my first Hurricane/Tropical Storm experience. We had a Tropical storm warning when we got there and it was pretty intense, especially after the storm passed and we just had the 50/60mph winds. I couldn't imagine a hurricane.lol.
 
Yeah, Im far enough north in a new enough house/development that's been built for this shit. We're built on an elevation, etc etc, so, we're not really worried about much... and there arent any tall/thick enough trees around to do any significant damage.

Just hanging out. I got bored and made brownies... seriously.. how metal is THAT shit?
 
Bradley Nowell had that idea a few years back....

Anyways, Kev, what office? what kind of work do you do, man?

So its hit last nite i see! How bad is it folks? Well J, I work in the IT industry for a company called "Data Systems and Solutions", the company itself are owned by Rolls Royce, does a lot of stuff like engine monitoring, oil and gas, nuclear stuff. I just manage the servers and stuff atm. It's on Mchard Road if you know that area. Or was lol.
