Instructions to write their name and Social Security number on their forearm in case of "something bad" were enough to finally persuade at least one couple to get out ahead of Hurricane Ike.

Anyone else in the houston area have their lights flicker on and off? I'm anticipating a power outage in a few hours.

"I believe in the man up there, God," said William Steally, a 75-year-old retiree who planned to ride out the storm in Galveston without his wife or sister-in-law. "I believe he will take care of me."

lol that crashed google chrome.

It crashed Firefox here.

If you can't get it to work, say so. I can take the source of the html and split the streams into four different pages. Would take 30 seconds.

nice, they are telling the people left in Galveston to write their social security number on their arms with a sharpie

gee, i wonder if they think there will be bodies floating around after tomorrow

Its going to be dark with no electricity and they are going to have to deal with a lot of water. With the amount of people who decided to stay on Galveston island, there will no doubt be people who die. The odds are just as many people will be missing and never found.

The artical linked pertains to the Southside Beach area. Sad to say it, but those who chose to stay there are likely going to die. I mean they already had 3ft of water flooding that area 4 or so hours ago. They are completely unprotected.

I found it amusing because below it is an ad for some cellulite removal, complete with a visual aid.

Your link held up better than mine.

I'd love to have a followup on that, to see if it is still there.

looks like it could curve up according to a few models but yeah it's way too far to even guess at this point

There are going to be a lot of confused people if the hurricane takes ANY of those paths.
