Title: We have to worry about Ike Post by: Spanky on September 12, 2008, 11:23:34 AM Talk here at work is a possible idling of the factories over the weekend due to Ike. Not that that's going to affect me as I will be home anyway but the wind and rain might be strong enough to cut power. Better charge the Nintendos and iPhone.
On the bright side it looks like all the soccer and baseball games for my kids will be posponed this weekend.

Stay safe by the way! Title: Re: We have to worry about Ike Post by: Aske on September 12, 2008, 11:47:13 AM Galveston/Lake Jackson/Freeport gonna get raped.

(So far 1 game has been cancelled, the other 2 not yet. I dread the make up schedule, I would rather they play the games when they are scheduled.) Title: Re: We have to worry about Ike Post by: Spanky on September 12, 2008, 06:44:14 PM Sure enough all our plants in Dallas are closing at 7:00 tomorrow morning for 24 hours.
And the first soccer game at 8:30 is still on. The others have been canceled. Hate! Now I can't even sleep in. Anyway they expect Ike to still be close to a Cat1 when it gets close to Dallas. We should get some rain out of this. :rain: So I have my drugs, we have liquor, and phones and Nintendos are being charged. We are ready.
