As some of you know I am a Ham radio operator and storm watcher, so with nuff said.... I have ears up everywhere and I am tracking not only on the ground with the news companies I am tracking in the air.... Accourding to the Military, "Not From My Mouth" looks like the Hurricane just curved hard right toward New Orleans.....God bless anyone in its path..S~TX-FlightRisk "If my plane is smoking it can mean one thing...I have been hit in one of my ass cheeks and I am cauterizing my wound....."

Cuda,           Good luck down there man!!  I'd love to see the "Send BBQ!" on TV!!!Take care down there bro....and this also goes for all my TX brothers...  Manford, Zen, etc. in the path of this storm.Update on Rah:  I left Houston on Wednesday at around 10:45am.  I had one slowdown between the Woodlands and Conroe which held me up 1.5hours.  After passing Conroe on I45 I did around 70-80mph the rest of the way to Dallas.  I arrived in Dallas at around 3:30pm the same afternoon.  Other folks here who left a half hour after me took 8-10 hours to get here...I left just in time.  My wife is stuck in Houston....  My son had been coughing so she took him to the doctor before she was to leave town...come to find out, my son has pnemonia(sp?).  So....with all the traffic she could not leave Houston.  Her and my son are both in our company's data center which is built like a fortress and has 3 huge diesel gens with fuel to last for a while.  Plus, they're close to the Texas Medical Center which is good just in case Evan becomes more sick.  She said that he seems to be doing better...they put him on antibiotics.  More updates as things develop....Regards,TX-Rahman"BLACK 4"

Tuesday Night Update. I just was able to come home after spending the weekend at the C.O. Power is back on here at the house in League City and the cable is obviously back on. Went by the Ex's house and picked up my box and monitor and everything looks OK here at the house. Some of the pecan trees lost some small branches and the yard has what looks like a thousand not ripe pecans in the grass. I have to tell Ya'll the light show I had the other night was simply amazing what with the transformers blowing up and the power lines arcing all over town at around 3AM. We took a relatively light hit compared to my co-workers on the east side of Galveston Bay towards Beaumont snf Port Arthur. One of our main switching offices went down as the roof was peeled off and the DMS switch as well as the fiber equipment in the office was soaked. We are getting plenty of help coming in from all over Texas and should get a day off in a month or so if all goes well.TX-CudaMinister of Information
