Im in Houston and its pretty ugly out there in the roadways. Its getting real flooded. Houstons is the biggest pussy when it comes to rain, it floods quicker than a bitch. Freeways are a mess all around houston. Good thing they stoled my car not to long ago, or else id probably be out there myself.
wait wtf.
flooded in car > no car

well, take solace in knowing that the guy who stole it is flooded in right now.
even better solution: he floods the car, can't call for help, leaves car. cops find it abandoned.

i'm in Austin. my office has a window. oh my god! so i've been looking outside while working all day today. it's been cloudy and drizzling off and on. not much.
and having a car is good during this time is good, because it'll get damaged, then if you have insurance, you can claim it got damaged by the storm. you get a big fat check in the mail. well that depends on certain circumstances of course .......

my dad's car got flooded in 95 or 96.
They took it to the dealership, and he went back a week later to check on it, and opened the door, only to have water spill out. They hadn't even drained it yet.
It was about a year or two old, but the insurance company gave him a check for the full value and didn't touch the rates. Another point for Allstate.

I just thought of an awesome feature for google maps to add.
On the map part, there should be a tool that allows you to click one point, then click another, and have it give you both the distance & the driving distance between the two. How awesome would that be?
