  1. It feels like I shouldn't be and I am probably overthinking it, but is the risk higher for younger people to get it? I got my Pfizer #2 on Saturday and have had no issues, but when I start talking about my kids it feels different. I have a 15 yr old and almost 12 yr old, so the wife(no pics) and I will have to make that call soon. We didn't have any issues getting any other vaccines for the kids, this one just feels different for some reason. I'm sure we will end up doing it for them, but I would be lying to myself to say that it isn't an internal struggle.
  2. Pfizer #2 this morning. So far just a sore arm. Hoping that’s all for me.
  3. I guess weatherman said fuck it and are just guessing like everyone else now. I always knew it was a guessing game! They just finally admitted it.
  4. He just said grow from the middle out....worked for pied piper.
  5. I grew up over there and went to Gullett. I used to go in the storm tunnels all the time. Played little league at those fields too. We used to jump on the trains and ride them from Anderson lane to 2222. Drove by there yesterday and was telling my 15 yr old about all that. He couldn’t believe I jumped on the trains cause I would kick his ass if I found out he was doing that.
  6. Yeah, I worked at Clark Thomas and left about 2 years before the shit hit the fan. I hired a guy away from there about a month before it all broke...great timing on his part.
  7. While accurate you knew exactly how it would be viewed. It is horribly misleading and should be changed or deleted.
  8. Wife(no pics)got the J&J Wednesday around noon and about 7 she was in the bed with chills and low fever. Didn’t sleep much that night and was feeling better around noon on Thursday but started tiring out later that night. Feels pretty good today. I get my Pfizer #2 in a couple weeks.
  9. Pfizer 1 on Friday morning. Pretty good headache in the middle of the night/Saturday morning. All good now except for a little soreness on the arm.
  10. Did he just call him Kurt?
  11. Yeah, my Tar Heel in-laws talked about it all the time when Barnes was here. The take was that Dean told a Clemson player to do something in a game or complained to the player about something and Rick said don’t ever talk to my players. Maybe some expletives in there... Tar Heel fans think no one should ever talk to Dean that way and it grew from there
  12. Just heard Beard get called to the white courtesy phone at ABIA!!
  13. I am also hearing on top of no pre emergent that also limit watering right now since that could stress it too. I have no idea.
  14. The cold snap did a number on my lawn. Full disclaimer, I know nothing about it other than mowing. I have a company that is usually pretty good and has helped keep the weeds away. I am now reading that with St. Augustine not to put pre-emergent down right now because it will stress the grass even more after all the damn cold days. The company is supposed to come out tomorrow to apply pre-emergent so I want to get ahead of it and just pass. Any thoughts? I am just hoping that it makes it through so I don't have to sod.
  15. I know a few people that have had their kids at the one off 290 near circle drive. No major complaints that I can tell. Most of them seem grounded. This is more informational and not meant to be political since it may not be clear when you visit one, but one of the parents did tell me that they have a large number of kids who are not vaccinated.
  16. We were team no drip and wrapped the shit out of the faucets. I also had space heaters near the walls where the outside bibs were. Went out side around 10 on Sunday and both were frozen. Thawed them out and wrapped them again. Went out around 11:30 and they were frozen again. I didn’t feel like dealing with it and constantly waking up and checking so I filled the tub for flushing and every container we had for drinking water. Then turned off the water at the main and drained the pipes. Tried to turn it back on Wednesday and I have some exterior PVC that was wrapped but must have cracked before I turned off the water. So I spent the next 2 days finding supplies and fixing it. Finally had flowing water by Friday noon.
  17. She was able to get a plumber to fix the leaks and now has water.
  18. I am working on trying to find help for an elderly women in Houston(west side south of 10 between hwy 6 and beltway 8). Specifically a plumber. She is currently living alone and going through chemo. Very weak and having a hard time getting out of bed. She has no family in the area and Is a friend of my MIL. She needs a plumber and maybe help cleaning up her kitchen from a caved in roof. Any plumbers on here than can maybe help? She does have heat. I don’t now any other details on what she needs at this point.
  19. We have had rolling blackouts with max 3hrs off, but others in my neighborhood have been without power for 24hrs+. Even across the street. It is weird how houses next to each other are different power sources. We ended up hosting 6 adults, 8 kids under 14 and 6 dogs between the 3 families last night. We did have rolling blackouts, but the low of 58 in my house is better than the 42 at their houses.
  20. Out near dripping and had the full 45 min rolling blackout. They are saying this will happen every 3 hours until demand is lowered.
  21. WTF is this thunder snow shit. Fuck winter go the hell back north. We don’t want you here.
  22. I just turned mine off on the provider side. I went to check the outdoor bibs and both were frozen. I thawed with hair dryer and got them running. Said fuck it and filled the biggest tub for flush water and filled up a bunch of bottles, pitchers and growlers for drinking water. Just turned off the water and and drained it all. Now wondering if the process for turning it back on is any different from normal? Also, I’m in a neighborhood that is on community propane tank farms. There are a couple throughout the development and a company is supposed to keep them full. They sent an email asking everyone to conserve because they can’t get trucks in to fill. The reason that some neighborhoods do this is there is no infrastructure and the gas companies don’t want to pay all the infrastructure costs to bills out. The propane company comes in builds it out and signs a decades long service contract that is usually pretty hard to break.
  23. I haven’t been watching until now. What are Trumps lawyers talking about with the house managers lying?
