Re: The Chaos has started
actually, I noticed that Home Depot or Lowes is selling systems where you have some clips that the boards fit into, so it's easy peasy to put them up and take them down
it was ok getting home, except for the SRO buses- the idiots didn't add extra buses during the early rush out of downtown and they didn't convert the HOV lanes to outbound.

Re: The Chaos has started
Glad you are home safe. Do you get paid for today and tomorrow without taking vaca or anything?
So, that yellow outside allboard that Georgia Pacific makes now? That shit must be good. Because they are putting up a building near my office, and they did the steel frame, put up the yellow shit and they are painting that and that's IT.
Re: The Chaos has started
yep, paid for today, but I have friday off anyway
we're all set
just gotta lounge around, try to find something that isn't hurricane coverage on tv and wait - the national news media isn't helping with their OMG, get out of Houston or you're gonna die routines - the local guys, for once, are way calmer
Mr CBR saw one person buying his hurricane kit: 18 packs of cigarettes and a shopping cart full of beer

Could you watch Judge Judy and tell us what cases are on?

Is TC some kinda construction contractor or something?

I have the wine - about 7 cases of cabernet
I've been meaning to ask you - I was looking at Spanish reds in our mega liquor/gourmet store last weekend and couldn't figure out what to get. Any recommendations?

Rioja!
I love that shit. Bodegas montecillo is really good. It comes in different levels. I can get the cheap one for 12 (I never buy that), the middle one is 18 (it's ok) and the reserva is $24. It's WONDERFUL.
those big stores usually have little write ups under the selections. i trust those.
Re: The Chaos has started
I bought a bottle of Carro Tinto 2006 - it's a Bodego LAN whatever that is - it wasn't too expensive, so if I don't like it, I'll cook with it.
but I'll look for that next time I go to Specs

Re: The Chaos has started
So, how is it going? they are calling it a monster storm and saying people are going to die. But it's a 2 now. Am I missing something?
Re: The Chaos has started
still staying - we're not even near the evacuation zones
the national media is blowing this way out of proportion - it may not even hit as a Cat 3

Glad you're home safe and sitting tight CBR. How do the puppies handle the storms? Are they ok with them or do they get whiney and try to hide?
Re: The Chaos has started
they're CBRs - it's not gonna bother them - two of them were around when Rita came through and other than being a tad bit more restless, it didn't bother them
