Wylie, he said he was in the kitchen and all of a suden the roof caved in and water was coming in at a fast rate. Flooded the house. Now some of the roof is gone, they have huge fans in the place trying to dry it out.

We do believe in extreme weather out here.

Not a native myself (the wife is a native) but I have lived here since Dec. 1989. We used to live in Austin, and we currently reside just a ways north of there. Both of us very glad to be out of Goofytown!

Finding myself glad to be here on this board also.  ^-^

Native Texan here, spending the next three or so weeks with my daughter in NYC.  And am enjoying the heck out of this trip.

I have hosted the TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot for the past ten years.  If anyone is interested, the 11th annual will be held this October in Hicksville.  FYI - the shoot is not about FR, it is to honor a truly wonderful Texas man.

Howdy TheMom, say hello for me to TheGirl.

Takes a little while to get your feet on the ground here but once you do it's great. Need anything just ask!

Welcome, Bear!

Glad to have you here.  And, yes, Austin is a challenge.

[Hank Rearden]

Austin is a challenge.

Two point plan for turning Austin from blue to red.

1. Cut funding for all UT programs except STEM majors.
2. Have the state legislature enact a law that makes Austin a must-carry (concealed or open) city for all adults.

LOL.  Yes, that would do it.  What do we do with all of those out of work liberal arts profs?

[Sanguine]

Howdy do!  From Addison or Bandera depending upon the day of the week.   

Addison to Bandera?  That's quite a ways!

We used to have a fairly active Heart of Texas Chapter in the area.
Maybe we can get everyone together again for a trip to Walburg or someplace in the near future.

Walburg?  Maybe if the Walburgers are playing!

Thank you.

Hey, Thackney!  You're the man on fossil fuels and climate change.

Glad to have you here.  I was in awe of you at FR at your knowledge of the industry.

Hey, Bear.  Glad to have you here.  You got here as fast as you could.

You'll enjoy.  No pressure here.  No need to look over your shoulder.

Not sure about the Walburgers, but we've danced to the Walburg Boys.

Yes, my mistake. My sister calls them the Walburgers.

I would love to meet out there.  Just say when.

Thank you for your kind words.  I am very talented at cutting and pasting the information from other sources.

Cheers!

These last few storms have been easy on us. Watching radar return the other day, the big hail storm, the two purple areas bracketed where we are, we got lucky

[Whyisatexasgirlinpa]

WhyisaTexasgirlinPA, Ditter, jagusfr and others seem to support whoever is nominated but don't seem to feel welcome anymore.


Thanks for thinking of me Geronl - it is very sad what is happening at TOS

We're glad you here.

I am a recent immigrant from FR and still learning to navigate my way around here. I just wanted to say a quick hello from the Highland Lakes.

[Sanguine]

Welcome!  And, the lakes are finally full!
