Also, why would one be armed for a hurricane?

A fine answer schlanky, but I'm going in a different direction. Geez, ain't anybody here ever read/seen King Lear, Moby Dick, etc etc etc. If you can't rage against the fates, the gods, the looters, the randomness of the universe in full, and fully armed, regalia what else is there?schlanky wrote:Clams wrote: Also, why would one be armed for a hurricane?To ward off folks trying to steal the Dickel in Hour 3 when the supplies are gone and people get desperate.Tequila Cowboy wrote: That's the burning question ain't it?

Yes, of course it's Dickel. I just felt it would be a little too product placementy.

Re: 3DD Hurricane Party
Ain't any of yall seen sharknado? Well we also have crocs and gators down here!
There's no underground in florida, that's why we ain''t got basements.
Thanks for the TP wwcd, which reminds me, we have some mutual friends in our DBT family that drove from Indiana to Gainsville and back to rescue their daughter. Thing is the gators there are mostly harmless

Re: 3DD Hurricane Party
Gah. The damned thing changed course and now my parents (and many, many other people) are in for a direct hit.
Was trying to get them to go spend the weekend with family up in SC but they thought I was being ridiculous.

Re: 3DD Hurricane Party
Not to mention flying cottenmouths! Luckily Mrs S is a pretty good shot and as you all know,
she's got a loaded gun in the closet.
Sorry to disapoint yall that thought I'd be hoarding my Dickel but I'm actually very generous with it and have made 3 giant punch bowls of DBTs which every one of yall are invited to partake especially you Zip!
Without question weed and BYOWOC

Re: 3DD Hurricane Party
Woke up on our own private island this morning. Lieske went with me as we swam the perimeter looking for sharks.
Didn't see any but one of those black plastic 1 gal plant pots floated up and he had a conniption fit and then killed it.
Still have plenty of DBTs.

Jumping Jeebus! You aren't going to be roofing, are you? Being on the ground would not be insane, but on a roof?

Re: 3DD Hurricane Party
We lost power about 5 am monday morning just before I was going to post an update. I never made it to the roof as Mrs S decided it would be a good time to do some shots. I realize it was a diversionary tactic but any time she wants to do shots I play along We cook with gas and have a free flowing well so we didn't miss the electric that much. We were lucky that the weather wasn't that hot until yesterday and the power came back about 1 pm.
Not any damage besides shit being blown out of trees. We have a couple of washington palms in the front yard that lost some palms but all the palms were in a pile at the base of the trees and not scattered around the yard. Very strange. We had boarded up the windows to keep flying debris out. We just made it with ice. I had a generator but couldn't get it started last week so I went searching for a new one. They were all gone and I had a coupon for one at harbor freight. As I was leaving one store a nice man in a trench coat, fedora and Patterson grin sold me a compressor. He said it would turn air into electricity. I must have got a defected one
All in all (for us) the storm was blessing and a curse, but I have to go clean debres in town so l'll splain later.

blessing and a curse
The eye was suppose to pass closest to us on monday morning but the water got to it's highest mark sunday morning then went down a little but never came back up. At it highest it was nowhere as high as it has gotten during past storms including northeasterns. We are pretty far inland and don't live near any bodies of water that could suffer from "storm surge" I sipped on DBTs and flipped from one news cast to the other taking a shot everytime they said "storm surge"
Our drive way is the lowest part of the property and as you drive down it you go over a 48" culvert that the little creek that runs north, and is also my west property line.(cottenmouth creek) The drive through gates to my front yard are on the east side of the culvert and then it's uphill about 50 yds to the swamp. Sunday morning as I stated ealier was the highest the water got and was about a quater way up the hill and the gates were open cause I didn't want them to break under the pressure of the water flowing thru.
But then for some reason I changed my mind and thought the water might eat a ditch accross the northwest corner of my property. So I waded down, shut the gates and put a chain around them. And if that wasn't enough I put concret blocks along the bottom of the gates. That's when I shook my fist and the storm btb. And that's when the water went down. As I walked back up the hill I stuck my shrubury shovel in the ground at the high water mark.
Monday afternoon when the storm cleared out I went down to see how the gate held up. 50 ' of the fence (chain link) and gate was a 3' high sand bar. Beautiful white sand. Marina had been on my ass about bringing in some sand to spread around.
Also the metal roof I recently built got ultimate test which has been one of my proudest moments. Marina will tell you a piece flew off but that don't count cause I never fastened that piece down.
