    I have a friend who is due in Harris County Court downtown for a DWI charge...does anybody know the status of that court, or what normally happens? He paid his bail in full. The problem (besides his irresponsibility) is that I paid a ticket for him to come visit us in New Zealand on the 24th. Does anybody know what's up with the downtown courts? Thanks.

    Nothing updated on their web site:

    Harris County Courts

    I thought there was a notice about Downtown Houston being closed, but not sure for how long. If I come across anything more, I will update in this thread.

    BMoney, your friend needs to call the court. Actually, he should probably have a lawyer if he's charged with DWI, and his lawyer should call the court.

    Thanks for the responses...we shall see. I have a bad feeling *I* will have to sort all of this out from New Zealand.

    You shouldn't hang out with Rafer in the offseason, dude. That's when he lets all his crazy out.

    There's still no power in Stafford, not behind the fountains at least. Someone spoke to Center Point and said, it could take weeks. :(

    anyone know about getting comcast service back on? Totally an unnecessary service, but it would help the time to pass till normalcy returns.

    My neighbor in Pasadena (around Space Center and Fairmont) said we have power. I don't know how widespread it is, but they're making progress.

    My wife and I said "Screw it" and hightailed it to Austin this morning. We're hanging out here for 2 days, and I'm working from my hotel.
