Obviously, the links that are more legit, are the ones that support my position.

My whole life, I watched disaster mostly befall far away third world places. But TEXAS! Rich, wealthy, larger than life TEXAS.

Preparedness? Can it possibly be true that even Cruz didn't have a back up generator? I always said. I would have emergency resources long before I had luxury items.

Although I’m not prepared for a long term outage either. I have 2 generators, but not fuel for a week, although I could siphon the vehicles. Gas stations were out of gas due to no deliveries. I try to keep enough food for a week or two. I haven’t had a power outage over 12 hrs in the last 30 yrs.

Continually posting links is the virtual version of saying, "My Daddy can beat up your Daddy". If they look hard and long enough, your Daddy gets beat up.

Having been thru a 2week + outage, i have enough fuel for of judicious use. Pump the well up, dump the septic, power the freezer/fridge every few hours or so. Charging phones, batteries. Some entertainment. Have woodstove.

Wishing warm weather to Texas.
