The Blot’s Hurricane Ike Update

The Blot is happy to announce I now have power, cable and internet again. Life is almost completely back to normal after the rumblings of Hurricane Ike last weekend. Now, if we can only get more gasoline supplied to the city so I won’t have to continually dodge the long lines of cars waiting for gas at the few gas stations currently open as I go out in hunt of open restaurants.


Thanks to everyone who checked in to make sure Aly and I were ok and to all the men and women out there patrolling Houston’s streets and restringing our power lines! I can’t even tell you how glad I am to have power once again.

Hurricane Ike Can't Stop The Blot

While the city of Houston is reeling from the devastating effects of Hurricane Ike, The Blot has found refuge at my buddy Eric's apartment. Somehow, someway his apartment building is one of only three in our huge complex that still has power. Plus, Eric was smart enough to get his internet through AT&T instead of our local worthless cable company (you know who you are!), so not only does he have power but he also has internet access!


Thankfully, Aly and I are doing fine and all of our friends and family around southeast Texas seem to be ok after Ike blew in early this morning. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for residents all along Texas' Gulf Coast. Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone currently dealing with the flooding and wind damage caused by this weekend's hurricane.

Have no fear, The Blot Says… will return on Monday!
