How in the heck did you go from hurricanes to sand storms????

My father, bless his soul, decided Taxachusetts was not for him so he moved us to Arizona in 1956. The stated reason was my health (bad childhood asthma) but the real reasons were the taxes and laws against everything. And that was almost 50 years ago!!

(But I ended up in the military anyway!)

One of the reasons you're not seeing much coverage from Gulfport and Biloxi:


A television station loses its broadcasting tower and roof during Hurricane Katrina in Biloxi, Mississippi August 29, 2005. Much of the city was heavily damaged during the peak of the category four storm. The storm slammed into New Orleans on Monday with winds of 135 mph (216 kph), shutting 91 percent of the normal 1.5 million barrels per day of crude oil production in the Gulf Coast region.
