[Caine 147]

It's crazy what the people around the Mississippi River are dealing with right now, but it's pretty impressive what some of these people were able to do to try and save their homes:

Corrected that for you..

 

I do agree they are doing what they have to down there, it's a shame that so many people are loosing a lot of their stuff.

First guys got a nice berm to shoot into all around the house, and he can fire safely from any window! Dream house!

Wow, impressive, but damn nuts what the people are dealing with. At least good reason to go use that jetski they bought.

It would suck to be the guy who went through all that time and expense to build an elaborate dam, only to have it fail when it wasn't quite high enough. (See photos on the OP's link.)

Over all thats some smart thinking.
