I am watching for news here too. Let's hope. It sounds like they had a functional animal control in place and when NW got there, they were handed the animals. My guess is that a police officer removing a dog from a child would have handed it in to animal control. If so, the dog would have ended up with NW.
And that makes sense because the freeper who emailed them said that NW said they would look for the dog, perhaps knowing animal control was going to turn it all over to them when they got in.

You have to admire the Clinton's sense of timing though. They know Bush and the feds are getting it under control but much of the public is 'behind the curve' and still think it's all out of control.

Thus James Lee Clinton Clinton Witt rides in to the rescue today and claims credit for "turning things around".

Palestenian refugee?

The list would be a long one. All of the sudden they pull the racist definition out of their butts.

They see fresh meat. Or more acutately an new way to season the old meat.

Such complaints abot small things are a comfort to people, it can mean they feel out of danger and with hope and expectations again -- you can take credit for giving greatly distressed people the blessing of being able to complain about small things. It means you gave them enough comfort for them to have expectations of better things.

Understand.

Lines going East will take some time, extensive track and bridge damage.
Earlier I read that Amtrak was running North so can assume that the IC/CN lines are passable.
Now that lines West are open is very very encouraging.

Was I wrong in thinking that Witt was a Clinton hire that Bush should've asked to stay on?

That's a good way to look at it. I, however, wanted to take comfort knowing that I didn't discomfort them with e-coli!

My best friend in Texas just called, and her husband just got called up and is leaving this afternoon. He's in the Army reserves some sort of engineering unit. In civilian life, he has a Master's in Civil Engineering and is director of transportation for the city of Irving, Texas.

My friend is the director of public works for Addison, Texas, and she said that the city was planning an Octoberfest, but FEMA has confiscated the tents and porta-potties that were going to be for the festival.

Exactly. One big political game in place and people dying in the midst of it.

Latest entertainment: The media scrambling to use a term other than "refugee". "Evacuee" has been proposed but Houston radio is urging people to refer to the folks in the astrodome as "Our Gulf Coast Neighbors," saying that even evacuee is unacceptable.

Too many syllables for me, but I'll compromise on a catchy anacronym, How about "OGCoaNs?

You could tell a lot about her by the few words she spoke. The reporter kept going back to her and tried countless times to get her to feel sorry for herself and dwell on her plight.

I was noticing today that the sound bites of survivors I heard on the radio were sometimes complaining, but the reporter's question wasn't aired, so you didn't know how much the person was nudged into it.

I think the nation needs to throw a big party for Texas once this is all over. They have gone above and beyond.
