Yeah, both of those stories have been done to the point of me being disgusted with them.
Lady on FOX now, saying the residents had been warned and had their choice of getting out or not (most of them anyway, had a choice), and thankful the city opened up the Superdome for them. Saying God is in control . . .
and He is :) I hope that the media has exaggerated again as they have in the past although I don't have the same feeling about this as I have had in the past...I was in NO at the World's Fair (I believe it was 1984) and they had several days of thunderstorms and I remember seeing parked cars with water up to the windows...no hurricane, just rain storms...
