He already said his part of Texas no flooding.

Houston is a big place, aye? 120 miles across and 80 miles north/south ..

Perhaps in his locale/subdivision no flooding, but since we're at 2 foot elevation, usually the flood bits are 'after the rain' and not during.

Usually.

No flooding at my houses - garden space flooded but drained off in 2 hours.

The Bayou, 2 miles north o me, flooded out of its banks into the Meyerland area, folk who lived 3 blockes north/south of it got slammed, 4 to 6 foot o water inside the houses.

I've a jetski parked at the garden space, thought maybe to use it this season, but even with a 200 CC engine in it, it's not powerful enough to fight the current going upstream.

Folks north o Houston got slammed 500 percent more than Houston, but I don't give a crapazoid about them. Parents' house ok.

Oh - a rant? OK - I can tell the illegal aliens in my town by their driving habits, in real time. Unsafe mofos, ye Godz.

Heya BoatMan ! I realize yer finally out over the open ocean, in yer boat, but I wanted to ask:

Why Gump not improve his 'station' these last 2 quarters? I know why, from the prior quarters, but surely he overcame his 'Gumpiness' these last 2 quarters? Yes? No? If no, why no?

Man I've eaten myself sick all right.....all gassy and ......

1- whadahela you talkin' bout boy......el vessel is down pending replacement of port engine raw water cooling pump. (The pump that sucks in sea water to cool the heat exchanger that cools the actual coolant for the engine)

2- once again, whaindahela you talkin' bout boy, speak engrish......are you saying why Gump no get a bigger apt?

They have a 2 BR. It's big enough, and it's what they can afford. Pay like 1400 rent plus may be 50 gas and 120 electric? Other 2 BRs around here goes for about 1500 and up. So he's doing OK. You know, they've gotta save for the future......but you're getting me started already......

[Darnell 8,479]

ya ya - future pamper packs replacements. See? I pay attention mostly.

But seriously - is he improving his station? if no, why no?

and sorry to hear about the boat pump thingie - did you order it online from Amazon.com ?

and a big post scriptum - deepest apologies for using the word 'Boat' in a sentence. I keep realizing you've a ship, not a boat.

So, remember Tiff's thuggy friend's husband's brother? who dropped dead in Resorts Casino in queens?

No, Amazon had it through another seller. It's a unique pump. A Sherwood G7B. All Bronze. Ordered it through a Marine store for cheaper.

Gump? Station? You mean job? Dude Gump has no skill set......he knows how to debone a chicken and deliver Chinese food. Hell even Tark can do that.........

[Darnell 8,479]

well, it's good the thuggy friend did not get any money from the husband's brother. otherwise she would have bought into some resturant partnership and then really have lost that money !

Oh. I remember a rumour of him possibly attending A/C or electrical trade school , a hint of a convo from last November.

Nevermind.

This should be a lesson to you..

Some people seriously do not know how to manage money.

And I do not pity them when they are in the deep hole they dig for themselves.

[Darnell 8,479]

Oh That is nice too!

yer gazebo is portable and you can sew. why not just bang out the bent bits and make a new cover for it?

Then put 55 gallon drums at each corner, tied to the gazebo, set up as receptables for the water collection system you've still to design and make. Water weighs a lot - should keep the gazebo from upending again.

Heya Toofies ! Finally caught up on my reading here,

and thought to ask (of you):

Can we glom together a new name for our clique, perhaps include the word 'laksa' in the name?

That's her other thuggy friend "PC". I broke it down for her....she heeded my advice.....

2- That's Tiff's cousin Fat boy. He's doing good.

wow - so The Gumpiness DOES exude into other folksen that you know. I thought it was really just a 'one-off', an aberration in the force. But it's not.

It's good news then about PC and FatBoy.

What news on the pampers pack placement?
