Boil alert for water for all of Travis County just went out early
this morning. Since our water comes from the Colorado river, and
it's so filled with muck from the flooding, the water sanitation
plants can't keep up.

Lines at the grocery store have finally subsided since they're out
of water, but people are camping out there until they get new
shipments of water. There's a line of 100+ people waiting to get
into the local Costco, which still does have water. Notice that the
line starts on the left side:

I've recently been watching the PBS specials about how beer made and
saved America - especially as the safest liquid of choice - so
that's what I'll be drinking. But rumors are that all the stocks of
light beers are dwindling, too. So, Belgians and Four Loko for me!
