  1. Maybe his mailbox is broken like mine has been for almost 6 months….
  2. Armybrat replied to TexasEd's topic in Hobbies
    I remember those! They made them with hardtops too.
  3. Sorry, but I can’t figure out how to use the spoiler feature for that.
  4. The Internet certainly brings out the gottdamned trolls & haters……
  5. That’s what separates them from civilized humanity.
  6. Prime example of those “adults” from A&M. I’m sure their parents are proud.
  7. Cow Creek…..isn’t that near Sunrise Ranch where Bevo lives?
  8. One of my great-nephews is an Austin fireman/emt. Some years ago he spent a harrowing time in the middle of the night with a colleague on the end of their truck’s ladder extended all the way out over Barton Creek fishing with grappling hooks the body of a female tubing enthusiast off the intake bypass grate, just above the swimming pool. Nephew is the father of four kids.
  9. As I posted earlier….. My niece, who is on staff at Camp Honey Creek, had to climb up a steep hill early Friday morning to get a weak cell phone signal so she could call out to report all their campers were safe in the main dining hall. Apparently the cell service down at camp level is non-existent, and their power was out. Luckily the water volumes in Honey Creek were not as bad as the rising further downstream at La Junta and Mystic. So their cabins evidently were not affected by flooding. At least that’s what I am speculating.
  10. Harold Hamm has been doing well enough to write a billion dollar check to his ex-wife. I am happy with a few crumbs.
  11. Crossposting from ipihb….
  12. Verdad.
  13. Here’s who runs the LCRA: https://www.lcra.org/about/leadership/general-manager/
  14. And fire ant clusters floating everywhere.
  15. I heard the old Arrowhead camp was sold to the Governor of West Virginia after the owners died. He supposedly turned it into a family resort “compound”. Camp Honey Creek people are already talking about reopening for a term in the next week or two….if they can get power & water back on.
  16. ?? I don’t get it. Was that supposed to be funny?
  17. My son’s ex-gf schoolteacher just found out one of her former students was lost.
  18. Reveille squats to pee, just like the milk”men”.
  19. Two of my brothers kids & grandkids (with great grandkids) live out south of Liberty Hill in the country and one on the lake at Marble Falls….the latter in the recently designated flood plain. Hoping they are ok.
  20. My niece who is on the staff at Honey Creek camp climbed up the hill behind the camp early this morning to get cell service. She called her mom to report that all their 200+ campers were safe and dry in the dining hall building. https://campchtx.com
  21. You probably know my nephew who lives near there out in the sticks. He retired from the Kerrville PD several years ago. His wife is on staff at Honey Creek Camp.
  22. My nephew’s wife helps run Honey Bear Creek girls camp. Just heard they are all safe hunkered down in the main dining hall withno power. All the camp canoes were washed away and the kitchen employees cannot get to the camp.
  23. Just went by our neighborhood firehouse that was hosting the annual July 4th pancake breakfast put on by a Boy Scout troop. All the firetrucks were parked outside so the inside served as the venue.
  24. When it comes to telephone “diplomacy “, Trump is like the naive confused geezer giving his bank account info to the Nigerian Prince Putin.
  25. Firemen in some sketchy places have reported being shot at, or so I’ve read now & then over the years. A few folks hate any type of uniform it seems. Before East Austin was so gentrified, my nephew was a fireman/emt at Station #1, which did a lot of responding east of I-35. He said the longtime residents in that area loved the first responders and viewed them as an essential part of their community life. His station received a lot of great home-cooked meals & baked goods from their grateful admirers. Carry on.
