For those of you who would like to see a link that was passed on to me with pictures of the coast of texas and galvaston texas.
I had no idea it was that bad, News organizations were told not to air footage of the damage , well we all know things get out, like pictures. this is 100 miles away from me. Mike Stephenson http://www.tpicks.com/pictures%20peo...sent%20me.html |

economy is boderline, stock market is very unstable................one invite- to a terriost attack and that would just about do it I suspect, not to mention the nation is split in the race for the white house(president election), then a bad storm like this, it went all the way up into the northern states, Columbus Ohio is still just now getting back electric

Those pictures leave me lost for words....
It's amazing, some places the grass has been ripped from the ground, and then next to it a lone house that still stands proudly amongst hundreds of fallen brethren... |

One can imagine if we get a similar event like this anywhere along the North west or Eastern seaboards - say, ummm, Gold Coast et al - how we'd fare?!
From page 1 of that link - anyone note the horse and house surrounded now by sea?
