It's the same thing in this case. Anyone with a brain, a gun, and any past experience with attorneys "will" hunt them down and shoot them just as long as they are allowed. In fact I see articles where it hapens out of season sometimes too.

My uncles dock in houston suburbs- last year the dock was about 50 ft from the water- seems like there is just no happy medium in texas!!
I am fairly certain that the 5 docks I built on our lake between 1999 to 2002 are the only ones not submerged. Od course 3 of them were floaters but only because I talked the owners into it knowing this particular lake like I do, and they are glad I did. One of them was a semi boathouse with lift so I shot the spillway before deciding how high to build it. The lake is currently as high as it can go and the bottom of the docks joists are about 6" above the water. Most of the other docks on our lake have either been destroyed, floated off, or will need extensive work once they are above water again but that won't be any time soon.
I had bid on about half a dozen of the docks now under water but they went with the cheapest contractor. You get what you pay for.
I will take some pictures next time I pass through the lake and it isn't raining.

Very true Mike. Once it stops raining, we won't see another drop until around Christmas! Tony

James Spann does our local weather here in Central Alabama. He's been around for about 35 years. Any time the weather gets threatening or dangerous he spends start to finish on the air and offering advice. He has been around the block a few times.
He has an interesting take on all the chicken littles on the news that are claiming we are destroying the Earth. His take on the Houston "unprecedented" complete flooding makes interesting reading.

Here's to hoping as the others that everyone down there is ok. We've been getting our share of rain lately, but nothing like you
guys.
guys.
Alan this guy is obvsiously a government shill paid to spread disinformation to keep the myriad conspiracies from appearing real. Everyone knows those clouds are cloaking devices to hide the alien starcruisers that are gathering on our planet readying for invasion. The aliens lack salt on their planet and they will be using us as personal salt factories. They will keep us alive in little pods and when they need a salt infusion they have little octopus suction cups in their hands that appear and they'll suck our blood just to the point of death and allow our bodies to recuperate before the next extration.
The reason they picked earth is because of our overpopulation 7+ billion salt bags. Many of us will be placed onto their cargo starcruisers as sort of alien MREs so they can continue their conquest of the universe. This "weatherman" is propably in fact an alien himself. These paticular types of aliens are known as Salt Monsters. If you think I am just a conspracy nut, all you have to do is watch this episode of Star Trek where Captain Kirk nearly gets sucked dry. Everything that was on Star Trek as science fiction has come true . . . cell phones and all.
So as you can clearly see, those clouds are obviously hiding starcruisers full of hungry salt monsters. I hope you're stocked up on ammo and phaser guns.
we got another 2-1/2" last night as well. Crazy!

Yes, I recall now. James Spann was delivered as a mole back in 1979 at the end of the Reign of Jimmy The First. They sent the rest of the moles to area 51 to hibernate until their ambassador could get here from Kenya. Thanks, Kevin it all makes sense now. (Where did my Tribble go?)
I know we Texans are sounding like broken records. Rained hard most all night with a brief reprieve this morning. There was nothing at all on the radar to my west just 30 minutes ago but now another frog strangler has formed right over us and is building back to the west. This business about building an ark might not be a joke for long.
Didn't that Jehovah dude say he'd never drown us again? Starting to wonder if he craw-fished on the deal.

One of my favorite southern sayings... Some of the local Okies don't seem to understand it though.
Maybe the term in your region is indian-giver? Although there's another one that makes no sense inasmuch as it was the indians always getting soemthing given to them, that they already had, only to have it taken away.

I don't care if they understand me, and the PC police don't seem to allow a pale face like me to use the word Indian. Sometimes, I make up words, and I'm amazed at the number of people who don't call BS when I use one. A friend of mine invented the word tripisculate which he says means talking in circles for no purpose. As in, "I'm not going to sit here tripisculating with you all day... I have work to do". I've used it on several of the local hospital administrators, and they all nod knowingly when I use the word. Of course, they're not the brightest stars in the sky.
Pretty sure that's the first time 'bone doc' and 'intellect' have been used in the same sentence without the word 'lacks' between them.
