• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Just to let y'all know i'm alive. My Wife and I survived hurricane Laura.(Sulphur La. is only 2 miles from Lake Charles) Rode out the storm and it was the scariest thing we've ever been through. Our house was damaged and all trees are down. Amazingly just got power yesterday with all the destruction it is a miracle. Will not have cable or internet or cable in quite a while. Over at my Mom's to send this.The destruction here is mind boggeling. Thanks be to God we survived and i'll never ride out a big hurricane again! posessions are temporary . Helping one another is more important. This is what we have learned the hard way. We may not have much left and i had to burry my Dad only 5 days before the hurricane but thankful my Wife and i are still alive. Live every day to the fullest because you never know what will happen tomorrow. Regards, Scott
 
Pleased to here you are all okay.
Damage can be repaired.
Thoughts and prayers with everyone over there.
 
Yowza! Glad you guys made it through. Doesn't sound like something I'd like to try!
 
We just got power here a few days ago. Thought it would take much longer. Will be a while for cable or internet. We still have 3 large trees to remove and roofs to be repaired , but all in time. Volunteers from Samaritan's Purse are supposed to be removing the uprooted trees and that will be a great help . There are a lot of people and Churches/Religious Organizations that are doing much here. We are very thankful to still have a home and a place to get out of the weather. Thanks guys for all the well wishes. Regards, Scott
