You're exactly the type of person that I'm talking about. roflmao

"At or below freezing" hammer


And you missed the point where I only had 2 days of at or below freezing, the last 4 days of the outage it was in the 40's (nights) to 60's (days) still with no power. Some food will last for several day, some can be thawed and refrozen, some can not.



You keep making excuses. Imma keep surviving. cheers

Just want to make folks smile, and spit coffee on their keyboard.

If you put beans in your chili, you don't know beans about chili.

God doesn't create temporary people, you will spend eternity somewhere. Choose wisely.

We had a bunch of food that was thawed at the restaurants, it all needed to be cooked or thrown away, we brought in a few employees to cook it all, called the police department and first responders, free catfish and shrimp baskets, had a really good turn out, was happy to do it. As far as having food spoil at home, that is just wrong.

We have a separated garage and I went out there yesterday to put something in it and the smell from the deep freeze and extra fridge was rancid. So I tossed it all as it was thawed. I had a prime rib, brisket, several pork butts and much more

Wife and I put our food in containers and stored it outside in the shade. The amount of food people waste is unreal. I'm sure that's also why the grocery stores were flooded with people loading up on anything they could.

My wife showed me on facebook on the City Of Lewisville page that some lady was going berserk talking about suing and getting everyone fired because her son's meds had to be kept frozen. Oh well, cannot fix stupid, cannot see the forest for all the trees.

O2 thief is a good metaphor for those folk.

Hummm, you all have some things to learn about living with cold weather. Biggest challenge is keeping things from freezing, that's what coolers are for.
