Hurricane Ike – Reflections and Lessons Learned
Finally, a week after Hurricane Ike came ashore in Galveston, I’m here in Montgomery County with my power back on. It’s been quite an eye opener for sure. This was my first major hurricane to experience and it won’t be one I’m likely to forget soon. I was here for Tropical Storm Allison some years ago and Hurricane Rita was a near miss. But Hurricane Ike is the first one that I’ve had to deal with. I can honestly say that my hurricane preparedness plans were not up to snuff!
Houston Will Never Host The Olympics
I was in a coffee shop the other day when I overheard two people talking about the Olympics. One said to the other, “One day Houston will host the Olympics“.
What a stupid and naive statement I thought to myself.
Okay, it might happen but only under the right circumstances. Mainly that the decision makers along with the IOCC are paid off. That’s the only reason I can see that a pollution filled crap hole city such as Beijing would be allowed to host the Olympics.
Why Beer Should Not Be Served For Lunch
Drunk Driving In Montgomery County
You know, it’s one of the things that surprises most people from out of State. That one thing is how many places serve liquor before Noon and during Lunch. I hear from my out of State clients quite often that they can’t believe there are so many places that serve liquor during the Lunchhour. I like a cold beer and burger as well, perhaps even more so, than the next person. However I’m seeing more and more Texas drunk drivers who’ve had a few too many at Lunch!
