And hopefully they hold and don't get a significant breach.
Whore-aldo was on the phone yesterday on Fox. Isn't he still in Aruba? They'll never find Natalee now with this beast of a storm. He should come and make our lives miserable over here now *LOL*
I love that song,,that is the one Marcia Ball sings. I thought it kwas the streets of plaquemine, now I remember it was streets of Evangeline. Senior moment.
Wow, didn't notice that the headlights were on.
I just turned on Fox.
When did Bill Hemmer leave CNN and join Fox?
HA!! "Uh, can ya hear me now?? Gooood!"
Jeez. Did I wander onto the EveryoneIsReallyPissedOffHere thread, or what?

If you have (or get) any information on Slidell and what's going on there right now, PLEASE ping me. I've got family who evacuated from there and they're worried because they don't have a clue as to what's going on. Thanks in advance.
Thanks!

Portions of the telephone system in metropolitan New Orleans failed about 9:30 a.m., further isolating the city as Katrina's center passed.
Remote phone switching stations and wireless phone antennas, or cell sites, switched to backup battery or generator power after losing power from electrical lines. But many of those backup power sources were temporary.
Bu mid-morning, dialing into and out of the New Orleans area was becoming increasingly difficult.
LOL.. He used to work hurricanes and then withBabwa Wawa so he's used to lots of windage and spittle flying thru the air.. ;-)
he came on board this morning.....just hired, and started today...
I agree, it was a diverse representation of people, probably a fair representation of the population there.
