Laz, i certainly took it as it was intended... i appreciate the "doom" break... apparently, i didn't realize if i posted an occasional joke to break the tension, i seem to not care about those freepers in harm's way... my mistake, i guess

Your asking the wrong person. I don't know.

Fox: Eight feet of water in the city just south of Lake P... Water still rising.

Well, there probably goes three relatives homes - including mom's and brother's.

Laz apologized and dropped the humor. Now more noise is coming from people piling on him than he initially created. Can we please try to keep this thread on topic, as news is going to be coming in fast and furious?

Roof to roof on high-rise buildings? Is he spiderman???

Brian Williams saying it's still too windy to do more than just step out the dome door.

[kinghorse]

just hush and you'll be fine. nothing more infuriating than some bozo (and you are acting just like one on this thread) keeping all the attention on themselves while adding zip,zero, zilch.

reports are coming in re Chalmette and it's not looking good at all.

After an incredible rain, my manufacturing plant flooded. One customer drove his truck into the plant creating waves with white caps and water started coming into the offices. I had to put up a "NO WAKE ZONE" sign.

He is going roof to roof by high rise builsings. Don't know how.>>

Think Streets of Paradise with Sylvester Stallone?

[Howlin]

Noggin doesn't have reporters down there?

[Abigail Adams]

Thanks for the pics! Keep 'em coming.

[bobdsmith]

Now where is this swarm of snakes we were promised?

[Kryptonite]

Wonder if there'll be a news crew at Brett Favre's house in Mississippi . . .
