  1. Sneaking suspicion that @King George is the newest incarnation of Rex.
  2. La Junta has been adamant that all are accounted for. They would be creating a shit storm if they weren’t telling the truth to parents right now. Let’s not spread unsubstantiated information here. There are lots of parents with kids at these camps that are already worried enough.
  3. That’s what I was hoping. It looked like men in the cabin from what I could tell.
  4. Just got this from my friend with boys at La Junta: Just got this a few minutes ago: Again EVERYONE is safe! We understand there are many questions and concerns, and while we don't answers right now, please know we're working closely with local authorities. The safety and well-being of your camper's remain our top priority, and we'll provide updates as soon as we can.
  5. A friend with two boys there sent me a message that she had received from a mom that has a son there working as a counselor. The message said the counselors rescued 60 boys out of cabins that were flooded. Those counselors are kids themselves. Remarkable work by those boys to save campers.
  6. Just had a friend send me that video. Nightmare fuel.
  7. Everything I’ve heard says all accounted for, but I did find the wording of that tweet to be a little odd in that it said all “child” campers. Hopefully it was just awkwardly worded.
  8. Same. You always knew it was getting good when the jacket came off, the tie got loosened and the sleeves got rolled up.
  9. Surprised they didn’t call in Spencer off the bench last night and have him suck back six Red Bulls and let him rip.
  10. I brought home a hitchhiker from a work trip to Wichita a number of years ago. Had to do the whole treatment where they heat your house up to kill them off and also wash all your linens, etc on high heat. Do you know how long it takes to cool a house in PHX down in the middle of summer when it has been heated to >120F? The answer is a long fucking time. I expensed the cost of the treatment plus half of my electric bill that month. My boss didn’t bat an eye and accounts payable never questioned it.
  11. Search and rescue is going to be a mess if they have to evacuate any of the summer camps and parents start freaking out and try getting on the roads.
  12. Was just kicking you in the balls for your mistake. It’s what we do around here.
  13. My sister and niece both went to Waldemar. They’re hearing from their network that Mystic and La Junta got the worst of it, but I think that’s purely speculation since there’s so little information coming out of there right now.
  14. They didn’t say it was GLORIOUS?
  15. My niece has a friend who is a counselor at Mystic right now. Her friend’s car was washed away. I’m hearing from another friend that Mystic had cabins wash away and La Junta sustained devastating damage. My friend with a son at La Junta is still waiting for news on where they evacuated the kids to this morning.
  16. I went to La Junta as a kid and there was a flood one year that I was there and they were very well prepared and that was nearly 40 years ago. As a kid, it was kind of fun and exciting. As a parent, I’m sure my parents were worried sick.
  17. Lots of parents with kids at summer camps along the Guadalupe waking up this morning to this news. Keep them in your thoughts this morning. I’ve been texting with a friend that has a son at La Junta right now and they reported that all of the kids are safe and accounted for, but that all roads in/out of Hunt are washed out. Lots of very stressed out parents across Texas this morning.
  18. Maybe every man, woman and child shouldn’t be carrying a deadly weapon.
  19. You have zero idea if that’s true unless you’ve been in that situation. I’d personally like to think that I would follow the Christian teachings and values that I was raised on even though I no longer identify with the church, but I really have no idea.
  20. So now the people of the State of Idaho get the expense of another murder trial and accompanying civil rights investigation. The bloodthirst is getting spendy.
