  • @USA-GreedyMenOfNoIntegrity

    I figured we would have learned our lesson with the ice storm and ensured everyone had a backup power source like solar. My 47kW is working just fine. But you would have to put off buying that big new truck, bigger house, camper, ATV and dining out daily. Now we surely can’t do that in the USA now can we? Keep staying up with the Joneses.

    I thought it was raining. It hit my house. First, a loud roar, like a deisel truck. Then the house started trembling. Next, the loud crack. As it dropped the tree and crossed the house. I'm still being #hacked, therefore, I couldn't watch the Weather. That's what we pay you for, to keep the lights on. I saw a 100 trucks sitting at NRG just now. Doing nothing! 😡

    Went through hurricane Alicia in Houston back in the 80's. Power was out for over a week. To all you haters you fail to understand the massive damage that takes place over such a wide area from even the least severe storm. To expect everything to be fixed in just a couple of days is just stupid but go ahead and cry and call people names if it helps you cope.
