Motivational Poster Thread (warning content)

I looked out the window
and what did I see?


Snow falling on the mountains near me....

 

No, I couldn't find any 'funny posters' about flu shots....

 

Next time a kid asks you where babies come from

 

Downtown Houston. Harvey took days, this storm took hours. It is the 5th largest rain event in US History and came with only a few hours notice. Beaumont, Orange and Port Arthur were hit worse, 40 inches in some areas.

 

My home town when I was a kid. The Willamette River was 50' or so above the flood stage. Oregon City has 500' of elevation from lowest to the highest point. Many homes and businesses were under water.

Tony's Fish Market is still in business and I've bought their products as far away as Florida in a Sam's Club of all places.

The Chrysler operation on the left is now a small brewery, but was once upon a time a service station where the first of what became Liberty Safes was welded together during a slow spell of automotive business.

 

Until Harvey 2 years ago there were no colors to represent the amount of rainfall we received again 2 days ago. Anything in white/gray is 20 inches +. The bright white is 40 inches +. And, it fell over a 24 hours period. Jefferson County has been the site of the 1st, 5th, and 6th largest recorded rainfalls in US history. 1&5 in the last two years.

 

Oh yeah,I have cousins on that side of the river,The real hum-dinger is the loose barges that took out a section of I-10

 

More flooding in Eastern CAnada if you didn't see the news.

The Govt response in telling
Canada Tells Flood Victims It’s Time to Move

one time limited 'flood relief' and never again for the property or take 200K (Canadian) and move out of the flood plain....

 

The US does that occasionally, usually in smaller towns and cities.
It's not like we have a shortage of land here.
Houston will flood enough times and people may start to leave but new ones will move in.

 

Did someone violate your safe space Chell ???
BTW,, your president was in our states this week ,, he seemed to get along pretty good with our president.

 

In what way was OldDude49's 'motivational' poster funny, or even motivational, SB? I'm genuinely interested in your deconstruction of OldDude49's posted meme.

I may be a poor benighted atheist, but it would seem that I understand Mathew 7:12 better than some supposedly bible believin', god fearin' 'Christian' folk here.

Substitute the words 'sexual assault' or 'rape', for sexual harassment, and a pitiful attempt at humour becomes even more pitiable....

 

Australia does not have a 'president' as it's head of the Australian government: Australia has a prime minister.

Yes, Scomo and TRump seem to get along well, in much the same way as "Dumb and Dumber" got along well...they have so much in common...
