    I also have to agree with lordblazer.... IMHO we need to start thinning the herd a bit, we have way too many people in the world.

    P.S. - GET YOUR GAS NOW!!!!!!!!! seriously get a huge stockpile of it, it doesn't expire trust me so dont be afraid, the prices won't go down
    Yeah God is being a jerk to us right now lol . Yeah I agree with you man. Canada looks better and better by each passing day. Hopefully We don't get bombed by the time we all flee for Canada.

    I apoligize for this incase of offense:

    this is just nature and global warming.
    It's mostly natural currents letting warmer currents into the atlantic waters and gulf waters of mexico and not some higher existence. Global warming plays it's part in this but alot of Americans wont admit it because they're making so much money from it.

    Thats my part done and once again I aplogize for offense.

    This Hurricane is bigger than Katrina and it could wipe Texas and New orleans off the map on a direct hit tonight or tomrrow.

    wow, I din't know the 'higher powers' called ya up. What network you got


    I do agree with ya, this is a devestating huricane. I don't think that Texas will get whiped off the map though. I mean - they got Chuck Norris. Also the fact that it is an absolutley huge state that has very esculated areas.

    I am glad that most towns have actually reached 100% evacuation. Cheers! It seems a little bit of light came out of Katrina; Imagine if Katrina never happened. Think the evacuations would be as succesful now?

    It's expected to either be a tropical depression or a CAT1 by the time it gets this north, but it'll still be the worst rain/winds I've ever experienced. The power might go out, and there will be broken tree limbs/windows, but other than that I'll be fine.

    Weather is a funny thing. A little change in path and we're now at scattered showers, 30% chance.

    Pray for Flying Mullet and Phil, as they're both in the Houston area and I've not heard of their plans yet.

    We're actually just hanging out and watching the storm roll in. We're expecting 60 mph winds at most here with rain so it shouldn't be too bad. Just as long as the electricity holds up we won't bake in the heat and get bored. Luckily I've charged my gameboy battery.

    Texas has been spared a direct hit from the cat 3 hurricane.

    What news are you watching? It's been downgraded to a category 3 and it's still headed for Port Arthur, which is just south of Beaumont.

    This storm's effect on the oil industry is already being felt. My school just got cancelled for next Monday and Tuesday as a result of diesel shortage. They won't have any fuel for the busses, apparently. I'm really beginning to worry about gas panics now.
