That's crazy man. Glad to hear you and your stuff is alright at least.
I live in Charleston in SC, and if we get a big storm there's quite a few streets here that always flood. Had a buddy come to visit, transcript of phone call during one of those torrential downpours:
Him: "Hey dude, this shit's crazy, I'm going to come drive over your place."
Me: "Eh, that probably wouldn't be the best idea, some of the roads flood pretty bad."
Him: "Nah I see a few people here driving, it'll be fine."
Me: "If you insist *Gives directions, hang up*"
Him about 15 mins later. "DUDE YOU GOTTA COME GET ME THE WATERS UP TO MY FLOORBOARDS, COME HELP."
Me: "And.... get my car stuck in the water with you?, You're about a 10+ minute walk, I'll start walking."
Him: "Nah, nah, let me call some other people."
*Cop pulls up to my house 10 minutes later with my buddy, who's drenched.*
Nature: 1 Buddy: 0
Luckily, we went and got it the next morning, and he was able to get it dried out, and didn't have any engine damage. We're classically opposed on our accepted levels of risk taking. Definitely one of the nights I was happy to be in the "pussy" side of the argument, haha.
