  1. That illustrates the power and destruction of such vast amounts of moving water. Hard to fathom. Devastating.
  2. Yes. Investigated and he was cleared. She appealed. Investigated again and he was cleared and she was fired.
  3. You gotta have a better gas station plan.
  4. Sadly, No. If you have to search that hard, it's pretty obvious.
  5. Cord is a good guy who craves the breaking info a bit too much. A horrible misstep.
  6. I'm glad they are finding so many bodies. I have a friend whose wife was washed away in a flood years ago. They never found her body. That's been tough on him and the family.
  7. yep. I watched his video several times to be sure. He has no direct evidence. Chip Roy flat out said it wasn't true. No law enforcement or rescue service has confirmed it. No news station has confirmed it. Of course, it's all over FB and mom texts.
  8. I knew him briefly in Austin through other friends. I'm not accusing him of making something up, but I'm certainly accusing him of behaving irresponsibly. He probably heard something and wanted to be the guy to have the news, but he heard wrong. Can you imagine it being kept quiet for hours if there really were 2 girls found? I doubt it. For the record, I hope they found the 2 girls alive, but there just isn't evidence to support it yet.
  9. No it hasn't. All the "confirmations" are just folks saying they saw Cord Shiflet's FB video. Nobody has another piece of evidence yet. Otherwise it'd be all over the news.
  10. Awful. I can't imagine they will find them all. A friend of mine lost his wife in a torrential river flood and they never found her body. She went into the Brazos at I-10 near Brookshire/Sealy. The sheriff told him she could be a few hundred yards away in the woods or a field, or she could be washed out into the Gulf. Said he'd seen it all when it came to the power of water. These poor families.
  11. Thank you for these maps and details. Really lays it out for folks who have not been on property.
  12. Find us a politician who doesn't act this way at a press conference. But first stop pissing your pants.
  13. Thanks for providing useful information instead of emotional garbage like all the guys who act like they've never seen a press conference before. 14 children. That they know of. Heartwrenching.
  14. Incredible. Horrific.
  15. Along these lines, and nobody wants to say it, but the parents who send their kids to camps put their kids in situations where they are largely governed/watched over by college kids with minimal training. These camps - the ones I have had friends work at - do some training, but it's not like they are employing professionals here. I don't send my kids to these particular camps, but mine go to others with other risks. Makes me stop and think.
  16. Relax. She didn't do anything wrong. Lots of worse posts on this thread than Nicole's.
  17. They absolutely sorted by region, ability, size, etc. My great-uncle was put into the Marine sniper school because he told them he was a squirrel hunter.
  18. Message boards would also be much less popular.
  19. It wasn't assigned seating. The Centennial kid had his stuff in the Memorial tent.
  20. I'm no tariff expert or economist. Thanks for all the opinions to read through.
  21. Seems like something one might find objectionable.
  22. Senseless. Who packs a knife for the track meet?
  23. If I buy the out of market MLB.tv thing, can I still stream the Mets broadcast?
  24. What's the best way to stream the Astros on phone or computer? Is the MLB.tv package strictly for out of market teams?
