So I was just reminded of another one. During hurricane Ike (this guy: http://en.wikipedia....i/Hurricane_ike ) I was asleep on my couch. I was right where it made landfall, and was currently in the eye so it was easy to nap. When the opposite side of the eye wall passed over, it ripped all the shingles off of my house. So this is a good time to inform you of two things. First, my house was made before plywood. The roof consists of apple crate slats nailed together, and is pretty much a sieve. Second, the ceiling in my living room, where I was sleeping, was drop in tile. It didn't take long for the tile above me to fill with water and collapse down, smacking me in the chest, and drenching me with water. I was up and completely out of the way so fast I didn't realize what had happened.


Spleen your house sounds ghetto

just saying, even Project 8 isn't made of apple crate slats >.>

My house has been around since the late 20's and has easily survived every major hurricane to hit the texas coast. Maybe they should start making them from apple crates. :P
