Their fortunes? CRIPES. It doesn't take much of a fortune teller.. Hey, where are all the NO voodoo doctors? Can't they do something? I mean, now's the time to prove their mettle.
Not yet. But, they're concerned that there won't be room for all.
Somebody thinks that a terrorist is going to eneter an evac station?

The FNC explains that they are looking for contraband such as alcohol and weapons.
You can take in cigarettes, but, unfortunately, smoking is not allowed inside the Superdome.
And for people who haven't been through a hurricane before, the prediction of landfall time can be misleading since the storm is half over by the time the eye comes on shore.
I don't think I've heard anyone on the news mention this.
Bless you Leilani - but as someone else mentioned, your father is not in that grave only the earthly vessel for your father. I know - hard to get our minds to accept that.
However, should we need a body at some time after death - it would be a new one created by God - not the worn out, discarded one of earth. Do not worry about your father - he is safe. (Just ask God or Jesus to give your father a hug for you. For some reason that helps me when I am longing for my departed ones.)
I am picking it up also....the tone of the reporting has changed.....very somber.
It will be awful when some of this tape that has Shep interviewing these Clueless people comes out after this is over and the deceased match some of those on Camera. I have serious doubts about that Dome also.
.....If this thing devastates the Port of New Orleans....
There will be a new course for the Missippi river. It will be months before a navigable channel is restored.
That's true. There's been so much focus on NO (and justifiably so given the potential for extreme disaster) but Mobile could easily experience terrible destruction as well.
The weather babe on Fox dosn't seem be loving this. She seems to be visibly shaken.
And now they have told the poor people not to bring stuff with them, but the Governor told them this morning to bring lots of food, blankets, etc.
I still pray the storm will veer off from a direct hit on NO, but if it does that, there are just others (much fewer in number perhaps) who are thn in its path.
Our prayers are for and with them all. The results of this catastrophie, barring a miracle where it weaknes signficantly and misses NO...could end up impacting all of us significantly.
well, if it really broke hard west, it could.
She's one of the few Fox chicks who is intelligent on not on television to find a rich man.
She "gets" it.
Plaqueminnes Parish abuts Orleans Parish on the southeast side. Miss River passes from Orleans to Plaq. just east of N.O. Plaq. parish extends southeast to the gulf; the Miss River remains in Plaq. for the final 60-80 miles of its' trip to the Gulf (on a map, Plaq. Parish is the finger of land that extends fartherest southeast into the gulf). Hope this helps; cities Boothville; Venice;Pointe a la Hache (Grand Isle is in Jefferson Parish).
Not coming up now . . .
Wonder if they are gone for the duration?
Indeed it will. NO has been of the most vital importance several times in the history of the country. It is the port of the Mississippi Valley, although freight can be transferred to alternative routes at some cost. The port will be rebuilt, even if the old city is moved to higher ground.
What?
You beat me by 10 seconds on that bit of "good" news (it wouldn't be truly good news unless it got somewhere north are 955 mb before landfall).
