South of Galveston, authorities said 67-year-old Ray Wilkinson was the only residents who didn't evacuate from Surfside Beach, population 800. He was drunk and waving when authorities reached him on Saturday morning.

"He kinda drank his way through the night," Mayor Larry Davison said.

That is a good how to die method.

Is he the one who's wife passed away a few weeks ago?

True, esp. if he is the guy who was distraught at losing his wife recently. It makes sense then but it is grim sense.

Lat,

That is so funny. I thought of that song when I first heard about the guy.

He just doesn't give a **** anymore.

I read about this guy before the storm hit, glad he made it. Surfside and Crystal Beach are no places to be during a hurricane.
