She was on TV complaining that "it wasn't hot". She was large enough to go a long time without food before she fit into anything size 14 or smaller. Lots of these large mamas need to look at the bright side- these days of deprivation are the first days of their new Weight Watchers program and it didn't cost them any money.

Shouldn't the title of this be "Ungrateful Person?" Is this second-hand anecdote about one person supposed to be representative of something? Why did you post this?

I saw her interviewed on Bill O'Reilly last night. I would have sworn she was over medicated, 'or something'.""

One of the complainers I saw fir into the category of being "over-indulged" with 4-5 generations of welfare.

Her behavior and comments stopped me in my tracks and pee'd me off enough that I will NOT be sending any money to the Red Cross. I will spend it on myself, new haircut and maybe a manicure. I have cut my own hair for the past 5 years or so to save money, but she just changed that for me.

yeah, no argument from me. I ate them in the Corp. sometimes heated others just plain. was just glad to eat.

and when there was no meat, we ate fowl and when there was no fowl, we ate crawdad and when there was no crawdad to be found, we ate sand.

Thanks for the link. I had not seen the information about prisoners simply being released.

I was raised a BRAT and as kids we actually would raid the MRE's in the pantry (granted it was the gum and coffee fixings we took). We were taught to eat anything put in front of us, starting with the infamous S.O.S. (if you don't know then don't ask...I would get censored for saying it!). We would never have considered it beneath us to eat ANYTHING in a time of catastrophe. Guess the lack of molly-coddling may have had SOME impact as a child. (I'm much sweeter with my kids, but they still know to eat what's fixed)

I was told by a Marine a while back that MRE supposedly stands for "Meals Resisting Excretion."

I'm saying that there may not have been readily available water in the Super Dome. You can't heat your MRE with a wet floor.

On another note, you are easily humored.

At what time? When it was falling out of the sky and leaking through the roof by the bucketloads during the hurricane or when it was waist deep in the streets shortly thereafter? There has been no time at all when non-potable water was not accessible to people in the Superdome.

she sure did- or something to that effect. Having eaten a few of those MRE "crackers" as my main meal of the day on many a deployment, I took notice with some amusement.
