For some reason the media loves to trump

things up. I guess its their job to make things seem worse than they really are and scare the hell out of people.

A few years back they predicted us to have a 28ft storm surge and said every home within 25 miles of the coast would be completely under water. Caused a massive evacuation here in Houston.

Turns out that 6 people ended up with their trashcan covers missing and Geraldo was nearly fell into the water as he was filming on the beach..........

The news here in Houston sends out reporters every time it rains (Unfortunately that hasnt happened in months) to stand in the deepest puddle they can to show the "Massive Flooding".

Any damage to the homes in AC? Hope you and Dick made out ok.
