  1. This is going to sound really crazy but guess who said the following quote? (hint hint... his words are in red) "13 But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”
  2. Dude... why are you here? I mean this seriously... I think you be a lot more comfortable hanging out on Texags, Truth Social or maybe some FB Community group in Jasper or Orange. Y'all can talk about prepping, sovereign citizen issues and avoiding dirty hippies.
  3. Deep East Texas real estate market still too hot?
  4. I'm not an expert but I can't imagine that's the case... for Houston, is there such a thing as an aquifer? Doesn't all that flow into the bayou and into the Gulf? For Austin, I don't know but sure seems exceedingly wasteful and not all of Austin is in the recharge zone. I live in the recharge zone for the Edwards aquifer but not applicable to all. If I'm reading this correctly... https://tceq.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=2e5afa3ba8144c30a49d3dc1ab49edcd I think that yellow section goes into the Colorado river and downstream...
  5. You must get really nervous when you drive into central Houston... what with all the weird people and different nationalities and such.
  6. Was curious after looking at those numbers and looked up Houston. Here's what they listed in August 2023... Along with the 30 billion gallons of water lost in 2022, the city lost another 9 billion gallons from January to April 2023, according to the latest data. Some months, Houston lost of over 20 percent of its total water supply
  7. Uh, what? We have a keeper in the family...
  8. Well this is comforting... https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-hack-us-infrastructure-texas-water-system-sandworm-2024-4

    Thx for the heads-up... Going
  10. Maaaan I really want to go but I may be using my weekend pass to see Je'Texas tomorrow night at Continental Gallery
  11. Amen to that... the number of songbirds we have is cleansing, for sure.
  12. Yup... we used to live new Town & Country, my office was 5-10 minutes max commute.
  13. Can confirm... that was fun and a lot of people just getting together with no worries save for trying not to cross their lines. I love Zilker.
  14. I also worry about water and get so frustrated when I see people wasting water for their precious green grass... especially when you're under water restrictions and they say F that. We're mostly xeriscaped... not a lick of grass in the back yard (trees, beds, decomposed granite, brick patio areas) and 10% St. Augustine in the front... with beds, paths, trees etc etc. I've really focused on adding natives and incorporating yuccas, agaves, cacti and other plants that are mostly bulletproof. Really makes my life easier and it saves a ton of water.
  15. Honestly, I don't trust a single Texas Conservative politician right now. They might funnel our property taxes to hunt down drag queens and naughty books.
  16. It may be growing but I don't think it would matter in that part of the state but, again, back to taxes.
  17. Just show them this map... this if for entertainment purposes only and not meant to start a political conversation.
  18. Oh, they'll totally understand that then...
