    I hear (from a roundabout way) that tfeverfred has just wrecked his car. Wasn't he the one more or less organizing this meetup?

    I'm affraid that may be true. From what I have seen on the local news, it will be weeks to clean up, even if the storm were to stop now.

    There are quite a few bucketheads in the Houston Galveston area. Hope they all made it just fine. May be a few days before we hear from them though

    I would imagine Fred is not anwering the phone because he prolly has no power. Along with 2 million other people in Houston. Katy (on the west side of Houston) did not lose power. Houston is a mess right now and Galveston is even worse so don't even think about coming there next weekend. You won't be allowed on the island. They are not even allowing the residents in. No reason to - no elec, no food, no services, no nuttin. And they predict at least 3-4 weeks. The mayor is telling the Galvestonians that left to stay where they are until we tell you to come back.

    I guess the T-bucket party is off since Galveston is closed off and pretty much still under water.

    There's always the North Texas T-buckets BBQ Oct 4th in Colleyville,TX.

    My family's thoughts and prayers are with all of the members and their familes within the area impacted by Ike. My wife has a family member in Winnie, TX and while she is fine, we hear Winnie took quite beating.

    Again, our thoughts are with you all in this time of need.

    Godspeed,
    Jim

    You never know, SC Firefighters might get a tasking to come and help and I might get to go. While I'd rather meet y'all under better circumstances it would be my pleasure to come and assist you in your time of need.
