KXAN: Texans face insurance spikes amid natural disasters https://www.kxan.com/news/texas/outrageous-texans-face-insurance-spikes-amid-natural-disasters/

ai6yr, (edited )

LOL -- not laughing at Texans predicament -- and our own -- but the thoughts here that the insurance costs in Texas are linked to "inflation", and not to billion dollar disasters piling up end-to-end in the state. I wonder if they wrote this article before Houston last week. ๐Ÿค”

Getting play by play from the local airport pickup driver I hired to pick up the relatives, LOL. Crossing fingers this goes well.

ai6yr,

@me_valentijn An hour and a half or more driving down, usually one to three hours of waiting, and hour or more driving up... as long as this goes well (ie they are safely delivered back) there is no downside, even with my paying for it. It's truly about a 6 hours commit and I can't do anything else...

ai6yr,

@Surflassie Maybe... fixed rate pickup fee.

ai6yr,

@Surflassie He may be Ubering around the local neighborhood, which is fine as long as he makes the pickup. I think a Uber/Lyft freelancer trying to develop a clientele, which is a great strategy for folks who can do it.

ai6yr,

@ukuku I suspect he's doing some local Uber/Lyft ahead of pickup (tiny hops he knows will get him done by their landing time), which is fine. At least, that's how I'd do it. I suspect he's trying to develop his own clientele, like many of the Uber/Lyft folks, on top of the gig work.

If it occasionally sounds like we are being invaded by the Black Sheep Squadron in Moorpark/Simi Valley over the next few weeks... maybe! https://local.nixle.com/alert/11002521/

@meganL Ah, can't wait for the Florida boat flotillas for that criminal mafia dude... ๐Ÿ™„

There are some new comments on my in blog post on @kb6nu blog. I'm not sure if something happened to re-surface this conversation, but I am happy people are engaging with it.

Even "Joe" who threatens me to "support straight christain hetero males and femalesโ€ฆ we are the majority that pay to keep the arrl aliveโ€ฆremember that !"

So much hatred and aggression out there.

ai6yr,

@bud_t @kb6nu And you wonder why people who don't fit into those categories don't feel welcome in the radio clubs, LOL

McAllen, TX with a heat index of 111F at the moment. 97F, 51% humidity. Apparently going to get worse throughout the week.

ai6yr,

@rustoleumlove WBGT issues being an issue in the US in the next few years will be scary, as they were talking about that being decades away only recently.

So it appears that "health spa" in town was not a health spa. ๐Ÿค” https://nixle.us/FKH4R

ai6yr,

@me_valentijn I think the US is still too religiously dominated (despite the entire hypocrisy of their leadership) to make that happen.

Local foodbank will get some of our primo organic lettuce today.

ai6yr,

@mappingsupport Looks good! I have yet to harvest enough produce in a day or two to make it worth the long drive to our foodbank (lots of gas... so unless I'm headed that way...)

Holy moly... Houston 311 service request map today (!):

ai6yr,

@mrpieceofwork @CStamp Wow! Glad you got through it okay... did not think of "change of clothes after sweating for 4 days" as a heat/humidity/power outage thing to prepare for...

ai6yr,

@mrpieceofwork @CStamp (noting that I have lived in dry climates all my life, and once went to Houston after a hurricane with ONLY ONE PAIR OF BLUE JEANS for several days).

ai6yr,

@mrpieceofwork @CStamp They were rather nasty after day one and I sincerely apologize to whoever had to sit next to me on the plane ride back.
