yep reset the gateway several times. Pretty sure it died again. It seems every time the power goes out they have to come replace the router/modem

Still waiting on power at my apt in Nassau Bay. The complex took quite a hit, lots of trees down, and some units f*cked up, but we were lucky. The only thing that got really damaged was some dumb b*tch hit our boat in the parking garage when she was leaving right before the storm. The boat slammed into the car next to it and cracked the fiberglass all to hell. Luckly someone got her info and gave it to us when we got back. I will get some pics up later. Also some other b*tch slashed my roommates tires on his LT1 cause it was parked in her spot. The manger told us to move it there, because we were leaving it behind and didnt want it to get flooded. Some people are crazy. **** sucks.

Got back in town from the evac. Generators goin and wired my shallow well pump to the gen. Lit the hot water heater, cleaned out the refrig and restocked it so I've got some extra ice.
If anyone needs a couple 20 lb bags of ice in the Alvin, Liverpool, Santa Fe area shoot me a quick pm since I'm set ok for now looks like.
Of course I'm sure most people who need it don't have internet but oh well i'll give it away or see it melt....
Hope every one came out well, we were pretty lucky.
