Family went to our farm house in Cushing, I am staying here in Silsbee.

Anybody up for some Texas Hold'em?

i'm already evacuated, but in normal situations i'd be up for a game.  do you play often?

I have a regular game every week, rotates around three places, have a monthly game in Buna, and I play at the boats about 6 times a month.

Man, I'm liking you guys more everyday...We have a " once a weeker " here in Barbers Hill.

I'm staying unless it heads our way. We are safe from the storm surge where I'm at here in Orangefield.

You had mentioned the last storm that you were right across the interstate from us.  You must have meant from our new house!!!  I kept trying to figure which subdivision you would live in right across the interstate from us in Little Cypress!!!!  lol

For anyone that is staying, they upped the forecast for the storm surge to 20 feet in the Golden Triangle. Anyone in Sabine Pass, Port Arthur, Bridge City or other low lying areas that has not left, needs to do so..... and hope they are wrong. The seawall around Port Arthur and Mid-County is 15 feet above sea level. Assuming that their forecast is correct, it could make New Orleans after Katrina look like a wading pool.

Of course, if you can swim in 100mph winds while on top of 30 foot waves......

If this stays on the current forecast, it could be catastrophic damage in some areas.

We are still debating.  Prepared to stay but my kids are wearing me out, so I don't know yet.  We boarded up the new house because sheetrock just got delivered and I have 9 french doors (I don't even LIKE the French, so why did I get that many french doors?  LOL)  Had to put boards in front of all of them because of all the glass.  We just replaced four windows after Rita on the back of the house we are in now and did NOT want to go through that again so we boarded them up!  We may go stay at my sister's on north 62 if we stay.  If not, we'll go to Marksville, LA.

    • Tim Erickson from Orangefield….
    • Lucky for Orangefield there’s only 3 games max to play.    Someone said they had a pitcher or 2 throw 90’s but I don’t know that for a fact.  Rumors.   it appears that Orangefield will see some faster pitchers this round. Generally speaking I haven’t been too impressed with Orangefield opponents pitching. Only pitcher so far that was fast (92 mph) was vs Woodville in first game & Orangefield got several runs off of him.    Looking for a good series with no injuries for both teams. 
    • Apologies if this is a stupid question, but why would they just not renew his contract for the 24/25 school year if he had multiple write-ups? I know teachers and paraprofessionals don't get their contract renewed if their performance is bad enough - are coaches' contract situations different?

    • It’s very difficult to fire an educator.  It’s not difficult to reassign them and put them in a situation where they’re likely to leave on their own.  I’m not sure of the legality of exposing an employee’s work records, but it seems likely it’s not allowed if nothing criminal took place.
