Hey, you can't let your significant other get away!
LOL... oops!!! - I posted the correct link already!
Thanks for telling me so. I turned on Fox and they were repeating O'reilly factor.
I'll watch CNN for awhile.
This is the worst devastation THIS FEMA pilot has seen.
20 sq miles is the greater NOLA area? Add to that Mobile, and points west.
No, the part I saw was just people taking more than they could carry and running . . . it looked like a scene from Haiti, not America . . . didn't see any law enforcement presence . . .
Eeeek. The husband zotter is a Tom Dasshole costume?
Phew, I'm outta here.
Goodnight all.
Prayers for all in need.
Well, we know you have the power, it's up to you to use it.
I'm off to find something to cyber-wear to the wedding.
this is MUCH worse than was reported earlier today.
My word.
This is basically mid cat-4 devastation.....the size of the storm must have made things much worse.
Wow.
Yes, 80% according to Nagin. And according to Jeanne Meserve on CNN earlier the water is rising. The levees have been compromised and breached in certain sections. Water is continuing to flow into New Orleans from Lake Poncatrain.
Thanks for keeping the Admin Moderator busy. They are to much for me to handle...LOL
Re the bodies .. he said they know there are bodies there that have to be dealt with, but the first priority is rescuing those who are still alive.
Kinky!
Stick with CNN.
(I never thought I'd say that.)
Are we saying that I-10 across Lake Pontchartrain is missing both lanes? Has the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway survived?
You ever been in that neighborhood?
I took a wrong turn once south of the Superdome...some guy came up and tried to open my car door! Its like Newark South.
