Bitchin Soul Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 A short diddy to let everyone know that Dzldoc has looked Gustav in the eye and won. I recieved a text message from him a few minutes ago and as he is still having power problems I am posting this on his behalf. Good to here my man. Your parents have one hell of a son Diddo! Thank you for posting. I was wondering how Dzidoc and his family were doing. I am glad that they are okay. Look forward to hearing from our funny man!

Rock Historian Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Yeah, we got lucky with this one. We evacuated to Alabama for a week. (I live in Metairie-which is just West of New Orleans) We got back home Wednesday night and my neighbor said we only lost power for 6 hours (he stayed). I was ready to stay myself (bought a generator) but everybody else wanted to leave when it turned into a 4. I'm tired of runnin from these god damn things and another one could be headed this way, but it's too early to tell. We basically lost everything in Katrina 3 years ago and re-located to Metairie (bought another house) so lets hope it doesn't happen again or I'll be lookin to move to Tennessee or some shit.....! Hope everyone who had to experience the latest storm is doing fine- Hey Al, (got your message) glad to hear your doin fine my friend. I sent you a reply-we'll keep in touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
