WOS92 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Posted September 12, 2008 Of course. People in Galveston who are "hunkering down" will be lucky to survive. I think that's a good, strong message and an efficient way of identifying bodies.
HoopInsider_Cooper Posted September 12, 2008 Report Posted September 12, 2008 Please post a link on that guys... KHOU reporting mayor of Galveston claiming she got conflicting weather reports and didn't think it would be this bad....This HAG said on Tuesday it was probably too late to evacuate!

82 5A State Champs Posted September 12, 2008 Report Posted September 12, 2008 I've got this thing all figured out. This Ike thing, it aint so bad. Â ;D TWC is really making it out to be alot worse than it is, IMO. I live in Beaumont's west end, and the wind is barely blowing here, yet. The media makes this thing sound like it's gonna blow Galveston from it's hinges. I personally think it's an attempt to get more people to tune in, probably so they can sell more commercials! I realize that it hasn't even made landfall yet, but most of us that have lived here our whole lives have been through hurricanes before. We'll make it through this. I'm just trying to put a positive spin on this thing!
