JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - When friends ask Bill Tyler what Hurricane Katrina did to his cottage in Bay St. Louis, he sends them a link to the online video sharing site YouTube.

How long is it going to take to get the bridge from Pascagula(sp)
to Biloxi back in working condition. We tried to take HWY 90
across, but had to turn around at the bridge entrance and
go back up to I-4 and around.
The buildings down there seemed to be back in shape, not many
blue roofs. A lot less than I expected. God bless you guys in Miss. and Ala.
I'm glad to see my donations to certain groups went to good use.
I'll refrain from mentioning who I didn't donate to. (wink)
I meant 8/29/06, not 07. :oops:
