Nah, for floods the way to go is definitely a gopher wood ark 300 cubits in length, 50 in width, and 30 in height, with three internal divisions, a door on the side, and a roof.I really think swamp boats are the way to go for floods, followed closely by jetskis.[DOUBLEPOST=1504284421,1504284386][/DOUBLEPOST]/stienman says with absolutely no experience in such matters.

Why is that laughable? Next week they may need outside help, but Texas has different needs this week.Texas Secretary of State rejects Quebec's offer of blankets, beds, and hydro crews, says "send prayers" instead.
It's that kind of headline that makes the rest of the world laugh at us.
If you only read the headline, it makes TX look like a bunch of backwards bible-thumping idiots who rejected actual help. True, the real story is the help offered isn't what's needed right now, but the headline just makes TX look bad.Why is that laughable? Next week they may need outside help, but Texas has different needs this week.
Or are you saying that the religious request is laughable?
Is your hyper-link the actual headline at the time you posted it? If so, they changed it to:Texas Secretary of State rejects Quebec's offer of blankets, beds, and hydro crews, says "send prayers" instead.

That was the story I picked to link. It seemed to be the least biased. That was their headline from the start. Most other outlets are going with the more inflammatory version.Is your hyper-link the actual headline at the time you posted it? If so, they changed it to:
Quebec offers blankets, beds and hydro crews to Texas in wake of Hurricane Harvey
Texas Secretary of State says no need for now, asks for prayers instead

Not zombies, but could be pretty damn bad for people still in Houston:Scary looking military trucks went down my street escorted by a police car with lights and sirens on. Then the power went out.
I'm telling you, man. Zombie apocalypse.
They were actually checking for trapped people. I was just playing around. They're starting planned outages in this neighborhood starting today.Not zombies, but could be pretty damn bad for people still in Houston:

Jeez, @CrimsonSoul I hope things get better for your parents. If they need help, I can offer food or manual labor. My wife's been working with a shelter here, and she can put you in touch with people who can help if you need it.
My first thought: someone should photoshop that prominent red box into a box of Sugar Bombs.Photo from inside of the HEB (grocery store) in Kingwood, TX
I've shopped that store before. We drive down to that area to shop semi-regularly.My first thought: someone should photoshop that prominent red box into a box of Sugar Bombs.
