I've been keeping track of Harvey's wake. Glad to hear the rain's finally stopping (although the reservoirs aren't clearing for a long while from what I've heard). I have a friend whose parents are in Corpus Christi so they were thankfully safe, though I kept telling her to dare her parents to throw a bag of poo at Trump--she told me joke's on me and they voted for him, so I dared her to throw a bag of poo at them. Ha!
Joel Osteen annoys me so much, and every time I see that large house of his with the three pools and the gigantic acreage, I remember that every time he brings up some reaction. Hypocrisy like that knows no bounds. Likewise, I've seen people comment on looting, which has been relatively small except in the case of perishable items that are going to be marked as a loss for the owners anyway. And then his other response was to start a relief fund that has a minimum of 50 dollars??
I'd also throw in props for a freaking furniture seller basically opening his furniture stores to offer refuge. The man admits it comes at a loss, but I'm hopeful that business will be awesome for him and people won't forget long after things have settled. I also love how some folks have reacted in general. In comparison to Katrina, there was more of a reaction and more of an attempt to prepare. I got to admit though that after listening to the simulator on Mighty Ike half a year ago, it drove me crazy that no one still took any of this to task since they predicted all of this so readily.

Glad you're all right!
