    All hail the douche CMK.

    You know cmk, all of your post seem to be negative. you never add anything good to this forum. just negative. always trying to rip on ppl or bring them down. Maybe its because your life sucks, Maybe your dad didnt love you enough, Maybe your mom touched you in the shower, or maybe its because you grew up as the fat band nerd, or maybe its that your still a virgin, or maybe its the fact that if you did get a chance to fuck a girl she wouldnt weigh less than 180. I also know I am thinner than you and joel. lol but yet i am the fat one. lol. whatever i guess. Its fucked up on this forum that some ppl try to tip toe around you so that you dont pick on them. your like the neighborhood bully that never could. You must have been picked on a lot in high school. I am surprised your not a cop.

        WOW handoex. is that it. Are you done? The great hando has spoken.
        Its great to see you are sticking up for your butt buddy cmk. Maybe you can suck his cock more.
        Apparently your mad too, Did nobody help you sandbag either. Oh poor baby.

        I am sure if it did flood ppl would blame us like they blamed bush for katrina. Were not here to serve you. Were here to serve the government and state.

        I wasn't sticking up for CMK, he doesn't even live here.

        The 1000 military personnel made up maybe 2% of the people working, and 90% of the military I saw was just directing traffic so don't act like the people that live here, like Joel's family, can't handle their own. The people that live here threw bags all week for families like Joel's while your fat ass sat in a humvee or chit chatted at the end of the street. I'm not asking you to serve anyone, we would get by without you just fine.

        My home isn't close to the river or affected by any flooding, unless the dikes breach at 43 feet. There isn't a bag laid even close to me. If I was bagging, I'd get it done without you telling people where to park.

              I actually worked at sandbag centeral most days. and the fact is if the guard wasnt here, fargo would have flooded already. Apperently you didnt see all the sandbagging done by them or the hesco barriers put up by them. Most ppl were in fact not directing traffic. You are wrong. Thats what a lot of them are doing now. If we werent at sandbag central at night we wouldnt have gotten the sandbag levels that they are now. And talk about ppl sitting around, you should see the city employees and contractors, lazy fucks.

              And you say joels family could handle their own, but yet they had to ask for volunteers and help.

I didnt need any sandbags I couldnt have carried myself. Im glad those idiots stayed in their humvees anyways. They walked over to our dike while we were putting bracing in, and go "You should put bracing in there." Then the proceeded to call all of their guys to come gawk at our dike.

                  Everyone has a job to do. if you want to change it then you join the military and do something about it.

                    We relied on family and friends. Not National guardsmen. I didn't call you to sandbags so don't act like I owe you anything. It would actually benefit me if you stopped now. Let the dike Break in fargo and my house will be safe. kthxbye. Also, No one asked you to sign up for the guard, it was a personal choice, so shut the fuck up and do your job since we overpay you to do it anyways.

                      Yeah, <u>volunteers</u>...the military sending you out to direct traffic isn't really a volunteer effort.

                        Come on now. Fargo's elevation is approx. 900' depending where you measure at. There is about 8/10's foot of drop per river mile to the north. Lake Winnipeg is at an elevation of 712' Are you saying the water is flowing slow because we are almost 200' higher than Lake Winnipeg that has ice over it?? That lake has a surface area of over 9,000 sq. miles. Even if we were only 20' higher than the lake it would still be like pissing in the ocean.

                        I never said "You're all wrong". I am just trying to clarify some of the stuff that is completely wrong. Sorry if you didn't like it but please don't post things when you have absolutely no clue about it.

                        Picts coming soon. Vids. have no audio, I don't know how to convert for sound with camera.

                        I'll have to agree with Bill here, but I will add a tiny little bit of my own thoughts to it. Yes, frozen river/lakes upstream (way upstream...not ice jams and such relatively close by) add a slight impedance to the overall flow of the river, but shouldn't be enough to cause any significant flooding/slowing of the water.

                        The Sheyenne and Wild Rice have also crested at this point (I'm pretty sure wild rice has anyway) so they shouldn't be contributing to a spike in the rise of the river at this time either....although the Sheyenne has some pretty significant moisture still waiting to be dumped into it in some of the more western counties it runs through....but that is still several days away if it starts melting now.

                        The only horrible scenario I can think of is if the weather gets warm and a major rainstorm hit the area dumping more water into the river in a short period of time.....or a hurricane coming up the Mississippi and hitting Fargo (I kid, I kid....)

                            EDIT: I also didnt ask your parents to buy a house next to the river. If you didnt want the military here then you go tell the govenor or maybe the media that, see what kind of response you can get. The only way they could get me to save your house or parents is to pay me.

                                Big deal, you didn't sacrafice any more than anyone else just because you're military. Joel wasn't whining for you to come help him and no one owes you or anyone else shit.

                                  I didnt get a 20k bonus, I joined way before that. and we dont have 20k bonus's. OBAMA took them away. Microsoft doesnt cause ppl to lose their lives for your dumbass either.
                                  How are they being lazy doing what they are told to do. wow you just dont get it do you.

                                  I am not saying anyone owes me anything hando.

                                    then you go do the same things and let me know what your pay should be. kthxbye. fag

                                    EDIT: I also didnt ask your parents to buy a house next to the river. If you didnt want the military here then you go tell the govenor or maybe the media that, see what kind of response you can get. The only way they could get me to save your house or parents is to pay me.
                                    No one is saying they don't want help, no matter where it comes from. You're acting like military help is somehow more valuable than civilian help and it's not.

                                      Even though I think Darrick is over-reacting, the Guard's purpose is to assist/protect the state and is under the direction of the Governor. From what I can tell the roads were pretty fucking packed as it was. Someone needed to be out directing traffic (or filling bags or whatever...everyone had a role) to keep things moving as smoothly as they did. Any chain is only as strong as it's weakest link and I'd say that nearly EVERY link in this chain was pretty fucking strong when they were all pulling together. Now it seems like everyone wants to take full credit and talk shit. This is NOT what needs to happen now. We are NOT out of the woods yet. Either side may need the help of it's neighbors on the other side of the river to get through this thing yet.

                                      Rex- Good job doing what you were directed to do. You had a job with clear orders and it sounds like you did it. Thank you.

                                      Joel- Awesome job on your dike, I'd let you and your family design/build a dike for me any day.

                                      Fargo/Moorhead- TOGETHER you guys kicked this things ass so far. Now we need to work together to keep this bitch under control.

                                        I am not saying our help is more valuable. It just brings something to the table that you dont have. Equipment and the ability to work us as long as they want and we cant just get up and leave because were tired.

                                        EDIT: i am done arguing with you hando. the arguement is now pointless.

                                          My offer still stands. If anyone needs help with cleanup after this is said and done let me know.
