I think some of my donations are going to go to Team Rubicon:

Okay, so you say one side is making life and death political at the same time as you are putting an ideological test on safety and aid - life and death to some people.

Folks didn’t even have a week. Most had about 48 hours from Thursday at midday to Saturday to get themselves and their home safe. In Corpus Christi they dedicated resources to helping people evacuate to safe locations in San Antonio ahead of the storm (started on Wednesday). Not so sure about the counties North of…

No - The Mayor insisted they not need to evacuate. The governor said that everyone should very strongly consider evacuating ahead of the storm:

Here’s a screenshot of the rulebook:

You never did monkey rolls in football?

I agree - surprisingly chewy and one-note in flavor.

Launching is meant to be leaving your feat to make a hit. Think of the move involved in a monkey roll except forward or towards someone.

Check again, the player was only two to three from LOS. He was definitely five yards from the O linemen but they backed up a yard or two in pass protection fairly quickly.

Yes - Floods are one of the worst disasters to deal with, IMHO. Namely because most people usually survive but everything that you own is ruined. Not only is it ruined, but it’s usually still in place so you have to go through it all and throw it all away in order to start getting back to where you need to be. Oh,…

I’m actually surprised at how Port A fared. That town was mostly trailers, RV’s, and small stick-built houses on short pilings driven into the ground (pier and beam construction). I can’t find the picture of it, but there used to be a 50's trailer house put up on stilts there somewhere. Very unique feeling beach…

San Patricio County (the county just north of Corpus) issued mandatory evac notices as well.

Should have stayed outside and just held up a 2 iron.

But...but...won’t someone think of Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw?!?!

Did it in under an hour and a half from posting! Bang - we’ve hit Godwin’s law.

I sub out rubbed thyme for the dried. It melds into sauces faster so I can make corrections on flavors much later in the prep stages and still come out okay.

My wife has taught our oldest his first and last name in a song along with her phone number including area code. That way he can sing it to someone in authority if needed. It’s not foolproof but it’s a comfort to know that he can do that if needed.

I took a video but mostly to see the reaction from my kids. My four year old went from “this is a bit boring” to “WHAT IS HAPPENING!!??!?? THIS IS COOL!” in the two minutes from the last shot of light to totality. It’s also cool to hear the crickets come up and the street lights start on.

He could probably have taken Reagan shortly after the Hinkley shot, maybe half an hour afterwards.

Eisenhower takes him in five rounds. Drops him with his trademark Interstate Punch.
