seems the crews could be repairing anything that doesn't need to wait on parts. Like clearing trees from down lines instead of just sitting waiting for a giant transformer needed at the nearby substation first.
Center point just said at the public utility commission of Texas meeting that 500,000 will still be without power into next week. They said they had a map showing the areas, not One board member asked to see the map.

The sanitation engineers cannot fix traffic lights. Good grief. They're just doing their job.Project Gemini said:Jugstore Cowboy said:

It's really unbelievable. Stop lights are all ****ed up but trash got picked up. Priorities indeed, Mr. Mayor.
Trash is a bigger nuisance than out stop lights. Especially with people emptying their fridges/freezers. If you want to really feel like a 3rd world county then shutting down trash service for a week would do it.Project Gemini said:Jugstore Cowboy said:

Yeah but why not recycling? Saving the planet should be our #1 concern above sanitation, power, and safety.Ag13 said:Trash is a bigger nuisance than out stop lights.

Parents failed a lot of y'all about filling gas cans.
Sanitation engineers is a joke, yes, but no, I did not catch the sarcasm in your post. My sarcasm meter is almost broken right now.Project Gemini said:CDUB98 said:The sanitation engineers cannot fix traffic lights. Good grief. They're just doing their job.Project Gemini said:Jugstore Cowboy said:

Sanitation engineers. This is a joke right? And you understand my post was a joke too right?
I've got the neighbor's gen running my fridge and I'll have a portable fan blowing on me. Just don't have A/C. I've done this the last two nights.htxag09 said:
Since we have power I have a portable AC if you can power it.

I'm almost starting to miss the days of limited connectivity after a storm. Had a good excuse for being out of touch when all you want to do is go back to sleep and not talk or drive.

I REALLY don't like being around my MIL. It's not that she's a biatch or anything, she just annoys the ever living hell out of me with her anxiety and neuroticism.
