Angry Looks like the Pimp is all wet... - 08.31.2008, 12:52 AM

So it appears that i will be riding out Hurricane Gustav... I have a bunch of supplies, 40 gallons of gas and a generator. My house does not flood but I expect my business to take 5-6 feet of water. Luckily all of the r/c is upstairs there!

So If you guys do not hear from me for a month or so, it is because the Dell is under construction, just like 3 years ago with Katrina...

This is going to suck, but at least I am prepared, or I think I am. Power should be going out on Monday, so I will be here till then... Answering questions and trying to inject a bit of humor!

Linc, I think it might be a good time to go visit some relatives.

From what they are saying, this one is going to be bad.

Good luck linc! We are all on alert here as well but looks like the russian hurricane likes LA better. The idiots have already cleared out the water in every store in TX already though so guess I will be drinking out of the bath tub if it makes it here!

Seriously though, if you need any assistance give a shout.
