Once again, the people in MS crying over losing their possessions should thank god that they are not in NO.

It is as simple as that. Anything else you want to interject into that post IS YOUR PROBLEM.

Once again, the people in MS crying over losing their possessions should thank god that they are not in NO.

And once again, how do you know they are not?

I saw video of some young woman in MS yesterday who was sitting there dejected and trying to exclaim the horror of her couch floating away and her entertainment center having flipped over and smashed.

It was a bit too materialistic considering the potential loss of life around her.

RummyChick, you made your point several times - every single person I have talked to who lost everything (and a tad less) in Mississippi has, indeed, expressed gratitude they are not experiencing the nightmare in NOLA.

However, to summarily write-off the complete and utter devastation that occurred to residents of Mississippi and Alabama is tunnel vision, and frankly, an insult.
