A Burger joint in Round Rock was donating 100% of their profits yesterday to disaster relief. The line of cars to get there was literally multiple blocks long. Im sure they didn't have enough food and I would imagine most was just a donation it was so long.

Yeah man, it's beautiful to see..... especially with so many imbeciles despicably using this tragedy as a means to push their personal or political agenda.

So many businesses here in Houston are doing the exact same thing, and for that reason me and some buddies are going to a beer garden out here tonight that are one of the many establishments here that are donating 100% of their profits to the cause.

Nobody is perfect and no place is perfect, but man, Texas really comes together when it matters most and it's one of the many reasons why I love this state.

The only reason...

But no that's awesome of the businesses. And just sort of shows that in this world we don't need government to steal money from one to give it to another. People actually are willing to help each other out if you give them the opportunity.

Yeah, it’s been raining non stop in NC too. And fwiw I feel like the Mets have had line one game out of every series rain delayed this summer.

Last year was like this in NC too. It’s two straight super rainy years.
 


But Syracuse University associate professor Sarah Pralle, who has extensively studied FEMA’s flood map determinations, said it was “particularly disturbing” that a camp in charge of the safety of so many young people would receive exemptions from basic flood regulation.

“It’s a mystery to me why they weren’t taking proactive steps to move structures away from the risk, let alone challenging what seems like a very reasonable map that shows these structures were in the 100-year flood zone,” she said.
 
Thanks. Im not in danger of losing anything but having to be at work for hours on end.

Glad you're not in danger, but that constant rain can wear on you.

Hang in there buddy.

That's how it is here. We can go two years with very little rain and then we get drenched. It doesn't really drizzle here very often. When the rain comes we get about 1/3 of our rain total for the year in a very short amount of time. And living in flat-ass Lubbock, the rain has nowhere to go, so it floods bad. We got 6 inches once in about an hour once.
 
Looks like we dodged a huge bullet with Erin. :skurred
