    My power in the last several years has become incredibly unreliable. I'd love to get a generator, but since I'm in an apartment complex can't really do anything about it.

      You can have a generator in your apartment in Houston, I did. Put it outside on your back porch. Run your chords through the window. Not much you can do about the humidity maybe run a fan, a microwave, charge your phone up, have a bar b que to empty out your fridge, just pretend its Harvey all over again. Good luck

    I lived in Texsuks for two, LONG miserable years for a work assignment. While I did not live in Houston, I did experience more natural disasters in those 2 years than I have in my lifetime! Texas seems to have everything except for volcanos thrown at it! What a miserable place to live!!
    And the way that "judge" disrespected the mayor is just another indicator of how horrible that city & state is run! I did not care for her when I lived there, and don't now. She has a very snobbish, know-it-all personality. I wish I could could have snatched her through my screen! Even if she was giving correct information, she had no right to talk to the mayor like that!!! For one, he's old enough to be her grandfather! 😡
