I should never take a drink while I’m reading threads. Thanks for the sinus irrigation.
I’m from Houston and know hurricanes including being in Freeport and Liverpool during Carla, I grew up with Hurricanes, I don’t know why you are getting so worked up and overly dramatic.
I’m reminded of a coastal community in Humboldt County. The highest point in town is a 25 foot high sand dune about 100 yards from the ocean. The Feds demanded that they do Tsunami planning, and one wag suggested that it could be a one page document reading, “Run For Your Life!!!”
Probably not the second half of your question.
Lets just leave them on the coast and let the tsunami eat them, better for every body else.
When I first read your sentence, I thought it said "Freeperport."
I must be spending way too much time here.
“and how many dollars did this study cost us??”
THAT was the first thing to cross my mind.
Hey! Some can do it!
Don’t remember the surfer, but that book was outstanding.
I was engaging in a bit of sarcasm. We don’t want the liberals infecting the conservative areas!
What’s the largest sized moving crowd you have been in?
Ever have the air knocked out of your lungs (twice) while being crushed by a surging crowd against an immovable object?
And just because you can see an atomic blast does not mean that you are at risk of injury from flying glass. You have your own overly dramatic claims.
At first I thought your screen name was "Tired of Texas."
:^)
...and why a thermos keeps hot stuff hot when it's cold outside, and cold stuff cold when it's hot outside. Mind bending!
Well, we already know that I sure have more hurricane experience than you, so I guess you dropped that path, so as a drama queen you are determined to argue about irrelevant things because you want to complicate duck and cover, and running to high ground if a tsunami is coming, which is all in keeping with you being a drama queen.
Since you were being taken to Austin, have ever even lived through hurricanes, like some of the rest of us?
As far as crowds?
It’s hard to say, but this is one event that I was part of when 13,000 of us were arrested.
Over 13,000 Americans arrested and the 82nd Airborne and U.S. Marines in full force by the many thousands.
While protesters listened to music, planned their actions or slept, the authorities quickly moved 10,000 Federal troops to various locations in the D.C. area, including 4,000 paratroopers from the U.S. 82nd Airborne Division. At one point, so many soldiers and marines were being moved into the area from bases along the East Coast that troop transports were landing at the rate of one every three minutes at Andrews Air Force Base in suburban Maryland, about 15 miles from the White House.
See post 63, and think positive thoughts.
Rita wasn’t about “hurricanes” it was about max exodus. Don’t be a dick.
Which doesn’t have anything to do with duck and cover or running for the high ground when a tsunami is coming.
So someone drove you away from what they thought might be danger in my hometown, where I was born and raised, it sounds like the big event of your life.
I’ve got dibs on: Study: More people could survive tsunami if they learn to levitate
