laggy.....come over. We're back 100% at the bigdog household. Bring your bike and work from here.

and I have wifi.

Saw chickfila on 59 and buffalo speedway was open. So was Kirby McDonalds in the village. Buffalo grill opened today to.

all on generators though, since the village is still 100% powerless. Power lines and trees down in front of Baker St and Brian Oneils. Midtown dark. Montrose dark. Richmond, westheimer, gray......nothing from 59 to 610 pretty much....and that's just what I saw. Downtown has lights...but is totally fucked up with glass everywhere. Doesn't look like train is running, since the midtown lines aren't powered/stations are dark.

sig it up.

SHHH i have stopped hummers from filling there tanks cause i hate those cars... i blame it on some bullshit computer problem.
FYI i sold 1500$ diesel for a generator that is heading to Houston.

Just got home off I-10 and Shephard from the woodlands which still doesnt have power.. Just learned from a neighbor that about 10 minutes before my arrival we got power.. I guess centrepoint must know that latinman is arriving

anyhow.. Looks like the freaking world war III went on down here.. but the essentials are intact.. 1. Computer w/power 2. Reliable internet..

On another note up north in the woodlands spring area that place has tree's mowed completely down.. I drove by the neighbors house where I was staying at and 3 tree's were cracked on his roof and his garage both of his cars in the garage were completely ravaged. Three doors down same thing only 2 tree's though..

Oh yah last but not least last night house I was staying at almost burnt down due to the fact that candles are bad have like 2nd and 3rd degree burns on my leg since I managed to put the fire out that some unnamed tard left the candle on where the pillow was hanging over :/ crap turned to napalm and destroyed everything in its path.. Very very ugly..

But Im safe!! and so is mah pc! FU ike!
