Texanon here. I have seen things over the past few days that has really shaken my confidence in the abilities of my fellow Texans. Texas has gotten soft.
Qteam, sincere thanks for this smelting of Texas. May the dross float to the top so as to be skimmed off and the metal refined and hardened. What doesnt kill ya, makes ya stronger.
Speaking of Austin…

A little late for some, but saw a guy worried about an outside pipe that was getting slushy and electricity was off. Wrapped the pipe in christmas lights, wrapped a small blanket around the whole, plugged it in to the generator. Saved his pipe.
