A good weekend labor to all the capitalists out there!

Yes, flash floods are no joke. I lost a car to one several years ago, right on my street.
Brian (host) 10:55:56 AM
That is awful! Obviously the capability to move your car to higher ground depends a lot on local geography and personal circumstances. Many people probably have no second option after street parking.

Brian (host) 10:57:40 AM
