Water and power is back.. I can only speak from Central Texas ,Austin . Houston is the the east of me ,Dallas and Forth Worth to the North, San Antonio to the south , Hawaii to the west.. This is my 1st state of the Union address as a Texan .. I no longer am a citizen of NY State.. and{ Cuomo what the f are you doing up there.} I have my Texas Drivers license ,voter registration ,house,car,license plate ,car registration ,etc etc. There is a scene in Bravehart when Wallace is talking to his soldiers on his horse before his frontal attack on the English. .. If you can imagine me for a second on that horse. ' You can have my license,car registration, texas voter registration ,Texas condo but you can't take away my NY Giants , Army football, Marist basketball,Hudson Valley fall,summer,spring , and MAAC basketball conference.. and the 4 snow plows my village of 1,400 owns.
You see.. with 4 or 5 days of temperature under 32 a few in the teen the entire state of Texas has shut down.. I can only speak of Austin.. no power in half the city ,no water in 3/4 of the city.. My water came on last night after 5 days .. But more have suffered a lot more.. my son had no power in Northeast Austin with 2 kids under 3 and temperatures in the house at 48 degrees,.. and me with power but no water couldn't drive the 12 miles to help him since the roads were impassable. The city of Houston has 6 million,Austin I think has 1 million and neither own one snow plow. Think Dallas owns a few.. but to think 6 inches of snow here and freezing weather all over the state shuts down the entire state. Think CNN,Fox,CNBC front stories are about Texas.
I do not want to get into a political argument here because everyone is pointing fingers about each other. But my Governor Abbot of Texas went onto to Fox news news and blamed the crisis on the " wind turbines " not working.. About 10% of our energy here in Texas comes from wind turbines. " the cold weather froze them".. They cannot survive cold weather.. But Gov ,Norway,Finland Denmark get over 60% of there energy from wind turbines..and they are 2,000 miles closer to the North Pole .. there are many reasons why Texas failed,the electric grids,upkeep,not being a part of the the Federal system.etc etc.. and I'm, Not here to blame anyone Hopefully they can fix it and stop pointing fingers at each other. And then you have Ted Cruz leaving for Cancun with his wife blaming his daughter.. Finally when his wife's texts are made public about there excursion to escape to Mexico for a few days.. just own up to it.. stop lying ..finally you did ... you criticized California energy big time when they had all the fires and now your own state is in worst shape..
This is a not a political post . All you guys on the right,left,center field need to play together. Even switch hitters .. we are Americans 1st and foremost.. my Aunt passed away in NY.. she was one of the many that was hospitalized,sent to a nursing home and died of Covid... but now that Gov is under the carpet for false information and hiding facts..
I never,ever,ever post political statements here. I respect everyone's political beliefs . I might disagree with them
but to me MJ's is about Sports . can Ohio St cover vs michigan . We all need to play together esp in the outfield
And although I changed my team from different states we are all red,white and blue and I will not eat a breakfast taco's..
