2018 Hurricane Season
In all fairness, we are not the only show in town. It has been an endless parade of disasters. Since we were hammered by Harvey, just in the USA, there has been Florida, Puerto Rico, California (fires), and now severe mid-west flooding. No cloakroom, but damn. Buckle up, amigos!

2018 Hurricane Season
I’d like to be further along, but I am far from the back of the pack. My area has many more houses that will be raised or razed in the coming months and years.

solving houston
We had 24 inches of water during Harvey and are finishing up plans for new construction on the same lot. The former City of Houston code required 3 feet of elevation. The current COH code, which went into effect 9/1/2018, requires that we elevate 6 feet. We will have 12-14 steps at each door, and, budget allowing, we will add a wheelchair/platform lift adjacent to the garage stairs.

2018 Hurricane Season
Today was our demolition day. It was shockingly quick. No more than an hour to reduce a 2300 square foot house to a pile of rubble.

Austin City Limits Music Festival 2019
Last year was, for me, the best line-up in years. This lineup is pretty underwhelming. But, tradition and shit - I'll be there.

80 yro Dad wants to Smoke
I have heard of someone shipping flower and edibles via FedEx, a few times, without issue. I heard he used a hollowed out hardback book that he bought on Amazon, carefully repackaged the goods into Stink Sack or equivalent, and obtained a FedEx label showing the sender as a small local bookstore and the recipient as the deceased former owner of his house. I’ve heard he might take that book when hm to Denver this summer. It’s just what I’ve heard. CJK5H

Custom suit
Has anyone gotten a “custom” suit through Jos A Banks’ new MTM program. Closer to Tom James or to a pre-altered Jos A Banks’ off the rack suit?

What’s in your smart home?
Anyone (preferably in Houston area) using Insteon? Trying to decide whether to have builder install Lutron Caseta light controls, or to wait and fiddle with something like Insteon after we move in. In any event, want to go the smart switch route, rather than the smart bulb route.

I enjoyed this immensely. But, I wish aggy was taking it harder.

Kirby Smart on Texas after he lost to the Longhorns
aggy could be 7-3 or 8-2 going into their final two games in Athens and Baton Rouge. Would love to contribute to the bottom falling out of their roller coaster ride.
