Biggest D*mn Mess.....And You SETX People, We Got to Do Better.....

" No good Deed goes unpunished. "

I am reminded of the Dutch Anabaptist Dirk Willems who in 1569,  had escaped from jail, and turned around to save the guard who was chasing after him and had fallen through the ice. Helping the guard allowed others to capture Willems, who was later executed for being an Anabaptist. ( You Baptists need to do a little history on your ancestors...Read some of the works of the church history professors at SWBTS.)  

I hate going to Houston. 

Let me repeat. I hate going to Houston. 

We got stuck traveling to Houston on I-10 for 3 hours behind wrecks. 

3 hours.  

Stopped, could not move, in-between the concrete barriers.  

Might not have been so bad, but about an hour in, I needed to pee like a racehorse. 

We finally, got moving, and stopped at the Stuckey's at Hwy 365. We'd not even left Jefferson County. After we " Checked Out the Facilities" we received a phone call from Deb's brother in Houston and he tells us, not to come, it is flooding over here. It was already late and there were more wrecks we had to navigate before we even got to Houston.....

We came on back down 365 to Nome, and drove down Hwy 90 to Major Drive and decided,  let's eat at Pappadeaux's.   

I was surprised at the number of people eating raw oysters. 

It's not a month that has " R" in it. 

Then again, I taught with a man who when he was at university did some research on the mollusks and I never eat raw oysters or any raw shellfish anymore.  And I used to eat them like I had sense....

Then, I was somewhat shocked at how trashy people dress now. I was not dressed up, as we had planned to change when we got to Houston, but good night above, SE Texas, we can do better. Especially you men. You ain't at home pulling a transmission in the backyard. 

I know.....I know......I am from here. I should be used to it by now, but, I still am not.....
