Well East Baton Rouge Parish, the parish Baton Rouge is located in and the 2 adjoining parishes are where all the "working" people moved to after the school board deal and Katrina. Crest is starting to move south a bit. It's currently in Ascension parish, the parish below Baton Rouge. But yeah...

But yeah, people on the internet will be dipshits. I've been getting flood updates/locations on the LSU sports forum where guys are posting what is flooded and what isn't, where the water is rising and not. Pretty inofrmative place. There's a state policeman that is a pretty big poster there. He...

Water literally fell in Baton Rouge or those parishes adjacent to it. Baton Rouge got over a half years worth of rain in two days. 30+ inches of rain. The parish adjacent to Baton Rouge on the east side that Sorce lives in said tonight that 75% of the parish was a write off.

A lot of people have it, but like you said lots of people are out of the 100 year flood zones by a good bit. Rivers credting higher than ever. I think they said 11 different rivers hit all time highs at the same time. The one river not up is the MS river but water in Baton Rouge doesn't drain...

Anyone recommend a cheap mouse that has a free wheel scroll wheel? One that you can finger and it keeps going for a bit without the little bumps.

That's a bridge, normally it's 40' or more above the water in a river that is 50' wide.

We can galvanize it, throw it in a tank of boiling acid and then a tank of boiling zinc....Oh wait wrong galvanize.

FedEx plane.

Crash ahead? No problem, I'll just ride on the wall.

Just hope it doesn't turn out like Katrina afterwards. When people redid their homes the only drywall they could get wound up being chinese drywall. Totally ate the copper plumbing, heathing, AC and other stuff in the homes shortly after. Giant class action suit was eventually settled. People...

I'm useless as tits on a boar hog. Everyone is flooded 45 minutes away and I have multiple boats with shallow drive motor, kayak, acess to a 2-1/2 ton truck and I can't do anything due to lack of energy and getting short of breath. Sucks.

Good news Sorce, WAFB said the Amite now has officially crested as of 3am and has dropped a few inches.

Sister lives right across the river from you in Prairieville, they just built a new house. Had it surveyed to the elevation of Airline and then went up 4 feet and it's right under their house now. The water on Airline is now up to the bottom of the stop signs. Police are walking people with...

They are saying 1 out of 4 houses in East Baton Rouge parish had water in them at some point or still under water. Amite is still rising. They are still pulling people out of houses trapped in their attic, water just came up that fast. I lived on the Amite river in EBR parish for years and...

Water back to "normral" in the pool for womens synchronized swimming after they drained it out and pumped in more. Any bets it will change color again after the IOC said "chemistry isn't an exact science". They actually said that.

Shits hot, I could have told them that for a fraction of the price.

Edit NOAA said the rain would be more than a 100 year rain, probably 500 year rain. The water now raising the rivers didn't come from up north. I'm up north and we got 2". Still raining there today, 3rd day they are predicting 20" of rain again for the 3rd day in a row. All the flood water and...

Is there a way to hide pets? Between myself, my fol;ower, dogs, gargantiun, 15 fetishes from a proc, and season pet there are 25 of us. Kind of like a mob roaming about. Plus mimics. Everything I have shits a pet of some kind just out of the random crap I've picked up so far.

I use the cheapest stuff wal-mart has and it's accurate enough for me. Reli-on prime. It's $9.99/50 strips plus $9 for the meter or some such. I've never had any luck testing it anywhere but my fingers, but I only check it about 4 times a day.

Noodleface you always how low is too low on blood sugar. Well I slept for about 12 hours and woke up because mine was low. I walked outside and checked the rain gauge, came back in and am posting this now while having something to get mine up. It was 50 when I sat down to check it. So even at 50...

Tropical depression came in and just sat there in Baton Rouge. The house my parents used to own in a suburb flooded and it was outside of the 500 year floodplain when I had it surveyed 15 years ago. My niece just bougnt a house in Laffayette and they had it surveyed and it was outside the 100...

They got 18" of rain in 24 hours about 50 miles from here, after having a full week of hard rain. We got 2 inches over the last week while everything 50 miles is floating off.

That was a pretty good jump from 2 pieces of gear. Went from running tormet 1 rifts if I took my time. Got the last 2 pieces for the WD set. Went to running tormet 8 and everything is just a click, including yellow bosses. Wall of death, acid cloud, you're dead. Now it's not a matter of killing...

Flooding all along the gulf coast due to a tropical depression moving in and sitting. Had a woman on TV where houses were flooded, semis washed off the road and such "Oh it's terrible, water is in peoples house, they can't get to the store, and they can't gtake their dog out to go go in the...

Made a witch doctor for the first time. So far seems a lot like easy mode, only 70 with 30 paragon and no set pieces as of yet on T2. Is it me or is the deal that pops up for acid rain look a lot like Joe Jalapeno on a stick?

Anyone ever seen the HP calculators that had a printer attached and you put little cards in it to load the programs. Those were incredibly popular for a while in my industry. Ever so often I still see one on a bookshelf in the corner somewhere. I know when my dad got his and could load a...

I am not an engineer. I work with a lot of engineers above and below me. I would say the biggest thing that separates those that making a good engineer living and those that make a fantastic (like 7 figures) salary for a civil engineer is be well versed in the end of people who will actually...

No thanks. Wound up being caused by lightning. I wait for the all clear on anything that might be bad. Now if it collapsed or just rotted I woulnd't care. While still burning, nope, nope, nope.

Just got a call asking to me to come look at the fire damage at the Motiva refinery while it's still on fire. Couldn't go if I wanted to, but no thanks while it's still on fire. Refinery that the Saudis bought a month or so ago.

Yeah just click the thread title instead of the dot takes you to first unread post.

They don't call me a luddite for nothing.

Watched beach volleyball all day. There was a wrist injury that stopped it. The good news is my doctor said it should up pretty soon.

But hey we just started up a new nuke reactor in TN. It only took 40 years to build and finish the permits. First started in 1974.

Most of the "projects" are actually quite nice when they are built. It's not a slum till the people move in. You might realise that if you ever had left the basement of mom once in your adult life.

The article I read earlier they were saying it's "not" really losing money because they had a huge spike in people buying the old one lol. They're banking on making money with wax figures at a deal to look at wax figures LOL.

Germany's only aircraft carrier.

Side scanning sonar.

Buttons on the side of the mouse for back and forward. I use firefox tho.

I installed the game again. But the thought of going 1-70 even if it takes 2-3 hours puts me off. Blah.
