What the heck,
My wife's birthday was yesterday, she wanted something that went from zero to 200 fast! So I bought her a bathroom scale.
Gotta admit, it's hard to stay up wondering how loved ones and others are doing.

I'd google you Mabel.
yes, there is a shopping concourse in between.
Not just New Orleans. I think of Plaquemine parish and some of the other parishes that they say may be completely underwater. There's a LOT of history there as well as a lot of people whose lives and belongings are in danger.
Thanks, sweetie!!!
They reported on the ABC News link from above that upper floors of the high rise hotels are not safe. What got me is that they have not even seen the worst of the winds but are already getting people off the high floors.
This is scarey.
We've been on double secret probation, haven't we? I KNEW it and you sent us up jabber, jabber, etc. to take names!:)
it's the hyatt
What? Are you listening to local feeds?
There is a hotel connected to the Dome, but I think the Marriot is on Canal...unless ownership has shifted since I left...

LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Oh the "swarm"
Liz will recall the swarm.
Feel free to speak up :0)
Thanks.
Thanks I am going to ask my Pool Guy about this.
I live on the coast and fresh water to top off my lap pool is limited.
I still can't get a feel for where Katrina's gonna come on-shore in relation to NO.
The last I've heard is 15-20 miles east of NO. It seems as though Katrina has picked up a slight wobble now - unless I'm not seeing that right on the TV.
That wobble is making it hard to tell whether Katrina will edge eastward or westward.
Anyone have a guesstimate or gut reaction?
Ok. So now I want to put in a saltwater pool and buy my own dolphins :)
Something caused them to move everyone to the ballroom. Cannot believe anyone stayed in the city.
Eye of the hurricane is getting more defined again.
On second thought--the feed for Hurricane City is dreadful.
I hear ya. We've never seen a situation as serious as this--not even Andrew or Camille--because we're talking about New Orleans getting a direct strike by a Cat 5 hurricane. Very, very scary.
