ThatHurtsMyHead Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 They can spend billions of dollars to transport oil all over the world, but can't put a pipeline for life giving water from the central US to CA. I guess water doesn't make people as much $. (J - Scratching head)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherman Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 DDD, Send it to California. We're starting mandatory 30% rationing next week with a boat-load of restrictions on top of that. I'll trade my bucket in the shower for a full lake any time. THMD, That's because PNAC can't adjust their agenda outside of manipulating foreign policy. We'd have "War on Water" broadcast by media and politicians if there was any money in it. Gotta agree though, a pipeline would work. And if it leaked...... At least the dry weather is keeping my CH at bay!!! YAYE !!! weatherman 8-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejeeber Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Dam, DampDD, yer gettin' slammed over there! Here's hoping your new domicile, acreage and sanity all weather it intact. Last time I saw this feckin much rain was in Nam...course, in Dec of 66 we had almost 24" in 24 hours on hill 327 just outside of Da Nang! When you're stuck indoors due to weather I sure hope you produce an autobiography or memoirs or some such.....between the fraction of the DD life I know of that includes Nam, touring with the acid rock band Orange Sunshine, mind blowing out of body spiritual/supernatural experiences, CH, etc., that could be a seriously riveting read!

Pixie-elf Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Denny, I'd like to sell you a boat. Because, I know for a fact, you and I both are going to need one after this feckin' week o' rain, amirite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiny Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Does this mean that the drought is finally over or did it all run down to Houston? They are flooded now too!!! Hope you got thru it ok and your house stayed dry and safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
