- Let me state the obvious: The Houston flooding is insane. And it is only going to get worse.
- And my bullet point from Friday now almost looks like an understatement:
- The Houston mayor, despite 911 being overloaded, told the public not to use social media for emergency requests because the didn't have the manpower. Why not? You saw this coming.
- But to come to his defense on another subject, why is he being dogged for not ordering a "mandatory evacuation." With a city of that many million people, you couldn't do that if you wanted to. What are the police going to do? Arrest a two million people who don't? And there are a ton of people who don't have the money to go anywhere.
- I heard that you can't designate where a donation to Red Cross will go. Is that true? That would be odd especially since they want you to donate to them by texting "Harvey".
- Mrs. LL and I went to Winstar Casino this weekend. I hadn't been up there for over a decade. When did that place turn into Vegas? That place is printing money.
- And I had forgotten how FM 51 north out of Decatur is quintessential Texas.
- I'm only going to make one point about Trump's tweets over the weekend as Texas is being devastated: He's a narcissistic, tone deaf moron. Oh, and I forgot to mention he pardoned racist Sheriff Joe late on Friday.
- We've had another Black Hawk crash. Something's weird.
- Never heard of this before:
- I can't say I'm a regular reader of the Bridgeport Index, but this week's edition was good. In addition to a front page story of a petition to remove two members from the Bridgeport Airport Board, editor/publisher Keith Bridwell went off on Bridgeport City Hall and the city council.
