Happy Birthday, Rags! :)

A few months ago (April) the author of the Birthday Thread addon module changed how it gets configured. Instead of configuring it from within the forum software (as a Cron Entry), it is now configured with a server-level command (as a Cron Job). I have access to to forum software control panel to configure these things, but I do not have access to the server's control panel. Maybe JoshM can figure it out.

Other than the Cron Job, everything is configured in the settings to make things automatic, including who the thread starter is. I just wanted to make sure that people didn't think Lawrence just decided to start ignoring or dissing people with birthdays, since he didn't even know when he was posting them anyway, and certainly didn't know when he stopped posting them. It's all automated. Except it's broke.

It is pretty bad, maybe the worst ever in Houston. Some places are over 2 feet of water so far with another foot or two forecast over the next 48 hours. We are probably around 10-12 inches. The water is over the sidewalk and several feet up the yard. We have a slight slope to the yard so the water would have to go up several more inches to even possibly reach the house. We are about 2/3 mile from the creek. The first 1/3 mile or so is flooded and evacuating/ed. By the time this storm is finished it will be about a year's worth of rain in 4 days for some areas. Not too fun. Not recommended.
