That's what my daughters say. Houston is bad enough but I would not like to live in any city or town of more than 5,000 people and preferably a little ways out. My goal is somewhere near Dripping if I don't die first.

These controlled temporary interruptions of electrical service ??" or rotating outages ??" typically last 15-45 minutes before being rotated to a different neighborhood." Granated they are only predicting to go to level one today possibly level two, but we have all of Aug to go and a bunch of soft newcomers living in Texas for thier first summer. Fun Fact-- [Did you know that averaged over an annual sample period over 1000 people move to Texas each day.] stay cool y'all, Wes~ References: http://www.politifact.com/texas/statements/2010/jan/13/rick-perry/perry-says-1000-people-move-texas-daily/ http://www.bizjournals.com/austin/news/2011/07/08/forbes-calls-austin-americas-no-1.html
