- otoh, I'd risk nabbing that saw horse pair.detritus
- If the horses aren't on someone's property and you're not threatening their lives it would be illegal to shoot. Ppl need to understand the laws here in TXGM278
- I am, of course, just addressing Detritus wanting to nab the saw horses.GM278
- Already on the plane!detritus
- what about snakes?utopian
- Snakes are an important part of the ecosystem. I don't support shooting them.GM278
- even on planes?uan
- Did they purchase a ticket?GM278
- it is pretty tempting to take that saw horse....pango
- dbloc0
- I actually looked into buying one of these (or at least something to protect the garage and doors) before the storm hit.GM278
- if your house is wooden, you'll need total protection. My partner's folks live in a floodzone and have had gate slides added to all their doors.. but, brickworkdetritus
- Yes, it's brick. My part of Austin does have the potential to flood in a bad storm. Wasn't expecting Houston levels but wanted to reduce any water getting in.GM278
- http://www.aquadam.c…dbloc
- I can't recall what they're called, but her folks have these slides bolted to the sides of all external doors, into which they slip thick metal sheets ...detritus
- ...they seem to work really well. Not much use for their basement garage, in which they lost a classic porsche and two triumph bikes a year or so back :\detritus
- i think an AquaDam would've worked well there!detritus

If there are any QBN'rs on here that are displaced by the storm or have a friend or family member that is, get at me. I have an extra room in my house here in Austin, TX. I put the call out to my friends but I figure I'd post it here also.

- This is great! Thank you for offering. Very cool!Krassy
- What if its OMG?err
- I figure better than a shelter. err, if you mean 1%ers... as a biker I can say they have their own networks and I'm not taking in criminals.GM278
- There are going to be thousands of decent honest ppl, families with kids etc that need shelter. I'm sorry they get priority to me than thugs.GM278

Here's a staggering stat.
Over 20 trillion gallons of rain by this storm so far- Twenty trillion gallons is enough water to serve the water needs of the entire United States population for almost three days.utopian

August 30, 2017. Aric Harding returned to his Friendswood home to get his kids' stuffed animals. Then he played his flooded piano.

Because of flooding from Harvey, the Arkema plant lost power — and the ability to safely store chemicals that can explode and cause intense fires.
