"My father hung me on a hook once. Once."

Googled. Johnny Dangerously?

I'll have to watch that one again, but I don't think so. Anyone else? The whole quote: "My father hung me on a hook once. Once."

Kiki may be able to google it. Not sure if she remembers that one though. Oldie, but a goodie! Cheers!

Oh, the casualties are racking up. Tree falls down after the wind storm yesterday. The freezer just lost cooling ability (also yesterday?). So we shifted everything to the other frigs. Funny time for the freezer to die. 2" water in the garage and the freezer doesn't quit but waits for sunshine? I'm confused. But I'd rather die in nice weather, too.

Remember, guns don't kill people. Jealous husbands do.

New info from NOLA, Parkway Bakery is coming to you to feed first responders, so if you know any first responders, tell them to make sure they get food from them, especially the po'boys. Best po'boys in NOLA hands down. Nationally rated resturant. Just sorry they aren't feeding all of you. They are also bringing, new socks, underwear, t shirts, shoes, pants, gloves, etc. All new still in the package, no hand-me-downs.

No offense to those who donate Hand-me-downs, I got some great, gently used, name brand hand-me-downs after Katrina! Used them for years in some cases.

A new car! Help yourself to any you find in the road rivers and driveway bayous located in and around luxurious and wet Houston. Bring a tow truck! Bring TP! And don't forget to open the drain plugs in the passenger compartment. May require a new engine, upholstery, electronics and paint job! The tires may be good for another 5,000 miles though.

Special runner up thanks to @KikisGirls for the wonderful GIF. Made me laugh out loud too! For you, we have another hurricane forming in the Eastern Atlantic! (wait, that's not funny...) How about 2 days of mostly sunny skies? Interrupted internet service for the next week? A babysitter for the weekend? "Would you believe... a box of chocolates and a foot rub?"

with specials thanks to Maxwell Smart and 99 for saving the world from KAOS-tic hurricanes.

Funny how pictures can skew things. I showed this to my family and friends:

They're panicked. They're telling me to grab a bag and get out right now. They've been to my house before, but apparently don't remember how far away that actually is. So taking a boat to the truck and then taking the truck to school isn't really a big deal because this is how far the water is from the front gate:

And this is how far the front gate is from my house.

Ready for the roads to clear and waters to recede so we can begin to help.
