  1. Part of Berry Creek in Georgetown runs through the back part of my lot, but I am 30-35 feet up a steep hill/cliff. I went out and looked at the creek at about 9:30 this morning and it was dry, as it usually is. By 11 am it was flowing at about 60 yards wide at a not quite record flow, but pretty close.
  2. Listen, dude. I get it. You’re mad. But the reports say these girls woke up to chest deep water. If anyone was monitoring it, then why the fuck did they wait to react? This will be my last response to this ridiculous argument.
  3. How hard is this? If they had someone monitoring the situation properly and an evac plan and thus is the outcome, you could then only pin it on negligence.
  4. I’m actually not even sure what you are trying to argue.
  5. What do you even mean? If they had started following the news when the NWS, Austin and San Antonio Mets were calling it out multiple hours in advance, we would not be having this conversation.
  6. I know no one wants to say it right now, but the people that own and operate the camps hold a lot of responsibility here. If you’re hosting that many children, at a site that close to a flood prone river, you should have at least one person on staff monitoring this 24/7, and a well established and trained evac plan.
  7. Evacuations happening in Georgetown along the San Gabriel River through downtown. Crazy video out there.
  8. Sooooo....cocaine, whores, booze and food?
  9. If LCRA could somehow unfuck themselves and finally finish the Arbuckle reservoir in Wharton County, the water passing Longhorn dam could actually still serve a purpose.. But it is delayed yet again with an opening date of "Summer 2025".
  10. Not just evap, but the sheer number of people getting in and out and dragging water out with them.
  11. I have a small pool that holds about 11k gallons. In the winter I may add 100 gallons a month. In the dead of summer I probably add about 800 gallons a month.
  12. Vlady is really fucking his country over for the long haul. He will be remembered as one of, if not, THE worst leader they've ever had.
  13. Zelensky should respond to Putin's memorandum like this: Russia will: 1. Remove Russian troops from all Pre-2014 areas of Ukraine 2. Cede the region of Kursk to Ukraine. 3. Pay Ukraine 50% of all proceeds of Russian energy that travels via Ukraine. 4. Return all Ukrainian Children 5. Provide Ukraine $500B US Dollars to rebuild Ukrainian infrastructure. 6. All future trade in and out of Russia will be internally monitored by the UN. Ukraine will: 1, Allow you to keep what is left of your air force 2. Allow you to keep what is remaining of your Navy 3. Stop slaughtering what is left of your working and military aged men. 4. Stop globally exposing your military for being comprised of a bunch of clowns.
  14. Zelensky replying to Putin's new proposal:
  15. I would think of the sign to look a whole lot more like moving out of Austin to a waterfront community and retiring.
  16. This is hilarious. Someone has likely been sitting on this for a while and, for whatever reason, decided now was a good time to release it. It's like a big "Fuck You" middle finger to Putin. My guess is that it's the current US regime wanting to piss of Putin for not playing along.
  17. I think Shoal Creek Saloon floods when two or three people water their lawn at the same time in Allandale.
  18. Now all I can think about is Moo Moos fried chicken.
  19. I think the clear solution is for the US to give Ukraine as many weapons as they need to kill ALL of the russians.
  20. Here is a visual historical perspective for Lake Travis.
  21. If you can't trust Kash Patel in these matters, exactly WHO can you trust?
  22. Hahaha. If the water from this creek got up to my house, about 50 homes and part of the golf course would have to be submerged.
