  1. What an ass THAT WOMAN IS! Have you even seen Trumps twitter feed today? Of the last 20 tweets, 17 have been about the hurricane. She cherry picks the 2 (out of 3) that aren't about the hurricane and bitches. What a loser.

    LacesOut, fhl, Arnie and 2 others like this.
  2. She's probably asking herself ''Why am i paying this Pino's salary when all he do is go on vacation play golf and tweet''.

    Who knows.:confused:.

    What a stupid individual. Trump posted tons of tweets on the hurricane, and also tweets on other activity. Is the world supposed to stop because of the Texas tragedy?

    Piss off, both the Holly O' Reilly and you, Spike.

    It's surprising... I would never take you for the religious type... But, if I'm not mistaken, you already quoted the bible and now writes like this... I have absolutely nothing against it... Maybe you're being sarcastic or joking and I didn't get it... :confused::D:) But again, nothing against it, it's just curious...:)

    LGIH down -4.5% as of 10AM, which is not surprising.

  8. Statistically this is closing in on "500 year" storm. And getting worse.

    The '500-year' flood, explained: why Houston was so underprepared for Hurricane Harvey

    Interstate highway 45 is submerged from the effects of Hurricane Harvey seen during widespread flooding in Houston, Texas, August 27, 2017.

    It's difficult to comprehend the scale of the flooding and devastation that Hurricane Harvey and its aftermath are wreaking on the Houston area. Weather experts call the storm unprecedented, and note that it's gone beyond even the most pessimistic forecasts. In the final reckoning, it's certain that Harvey will be classified a 500-year flood — and maybe even a 1,000-year flood.

    But those terms can be a bit misleading — especially when high-profile people, like the president of the United States,confuse the issue by calling Harvey "a once in 500 year flood."...

    Is it just me or does it seem like we have "500-year" weather events, once every 8 years?

  10. The statistical distribution has changed. After Harvey, insurance companies will probably double their flood insurance rates to live near the sea. The sad part is that these people can't even afford the current rates and many had complete devastating loses.

    Markets don't care. If you live in a coastal city, MARKETS ARE PRICING IN GLOBAL WARMING - HUMAN FORCED OR NOT.
