  1. where did she profess to be like Jesus? next you're going to say that someone who sends out Christmas cards also professes to be like Jesus?
  2. i must have missed that part of the story. oh wait no i didn't.
  3. i would agree that it's between the tranformer and your house and not a transformer problem since the others have no problems. call centerpoint again and make sure and describe what is happening when the workers arrive. this should be something that can be handled quickly. from the prior calls that you've made have you gotten an automated response saying something like "press 1 if your power has been restored" or "press 2 if you are still having problems?"
  4. usually the electricians won't touch the transformers....so are your neighbors (who are on the same transformer as you) also only receiving 110? if so then i'd say there is a transformer problem, if not it something in your specific circuit. i was talking to someone this morning who still doesn't have power.....
  5. (281) 464-5500 this is txdot se office on 1959. EDIT: TxDOT is claiming utility issues with centerpoint is the reason the overpass at el camino isnt open. they said freeway project is scheduled to be finished nov 2009
  6. even more frustrating is that they'll fix one light, skip one, fix another, skip two, etc.

    i work with a couple of people in the military who told me that the govt pays something on the order of $20/meal. they said they don't eat them unless they have to because they are designed to make you somewhat constipated so that you're not looking for a restroom on the battlefield.
  12. you should be able to. i'm still surprised how many people are mixing debris even though it has been announced repeatedly. i've seen the city just leave piles there and the homeowners are wondering what the problem is since their neighbor's debris was taken.
  13. it happens in my hood cause my tree is nicely trimmed around the wires. you have to be proactive and call. from your previous posts it is fairly obvious you're not proactive.
  14. i'm a 7-8 hr person, otherwise afternoons are sluggish. just found this
  15. you should go volunteer at crisis hotline. never a dull moment.
  16. sounds like the lines got wet. my parents used to get this all the time. here's some other info we got at work. CABLE AND COMMUNICATIONS PROVIDERS T-Mobile is topping off pre-paid cell phones that were running low at no charge to make sure people don't run out of service, and it has suspended collections calls in Houston and Galveston. Sprint is waiving roaming fees, call-forwarding, late fees and overage charges for customers who use more minutes or text messages than they're allowed between Sept. 9 and Oct. 11, said spokeswoman Kristin Wallace. The company is also offering free call-forwarding service and Sprint has suspended collections calls and service disconnections. AT&T has suspended all disconnections and collection activities. The company is providing free local and long-distance calling in all of its retail stores, and is offering free Wi-Fi service to anyone at all area Barnes and Noble locations, said spokesman Dan Feldstein. AT&T will work with customers on their billing on a case-by-case basis. AT&T also offers its customers rollover minutes, allowing them to absorb a month in which their usage is heavier than normal. Verizon Wireless is giving one month of free service in the 409 area code and has suspended collections calls in the Greater Houston area, said spokeswoman Gretchen LeJeune. Verizon which provides landline phone service in several cities around Galveston Bay, has suspended collections calls and disconnections, said spokesman Lee Gierczynski. Comcast has suspended disconnections and collections, said spokesman Ray Purser. Time Warner Cable, which provides cable service for Beaumont and parts of Southeast Texas, has credited customers' accounts back to Sept. 12 and will extend credits until service is restored, said spokesman Gary Underwood. The company also is not disconnecting customers or making collections calls.
  17. i pay less than that at market square grill and like them considerably more. as for value, the 2x i've been to beaver's and to her other place t'afia, i think the drinks are too much, way too much. using tito's and flor de ca
  18. if a tree is around the powerlines , centerpoint will come trim them for free. as for many of the other issues...neighborhood protection and the health dept should be able to address those problems.
  19. been to max's.....didn't think their $18 hamburgers were special enough to be charged that price.
  20. they may have pics of the outside taken from the street however usually nothing beyond that
  21. soil conditions definitely affect building costs.
  22. the northside doors failed and according to county commissioner garcia over a million gallons of water are in there and it will take 4 to 5 days to drain.
