Was it in 1978 or 79 that Jackson had all those floods.

i remember driving down to Bay Saint Louis and having to cross the river.

Just as we crossed the bridge and expansion joint moved and the bridge was closed.

Still remember the policeman yelling to get the hell off the bridge.

As I exited the bridge looked downtown and hundreds of building were under water.

Were you there then?

[TexKat]

I know spectre, I keep searching for updates and there was nothing.

[OKIEDOC]

Thats OK.

I'm tired and have made way to many posts.

A person probably should not post when their angry.

Prayers for the people of Louisiana both black and white.

She may not want to come to Miami and with the national coverage she has received, she may have many offers. If she chooses not to come here, I'll send money for her anyway. I asked Fox to determine how I could help.

There was a time in my life when I walked out with only the clothes on my back and had to rebuild from scratch. I know that ultimately we as individuals are responsible for ourselves. She's proved herself a survivor..and as a survivor, I'll help her out one way or the other. I have the resources to support her if she wants it.

Yeah Anderson says they will get answers tonight when they have Witt on CNN!!!

[Howlin]

And here we have Jamie Witt to clean up the governor's actions.

Let's not forget HE is the one who let Clinton reject the bill in 1998.

Contractors shot at but not killed, says FOX

[sheikdetailfeather]

Fox saying that someone shot at the contractors but the police took the bad guys out. Not the contractors.

[TexKat]

per Fox News: Now the contractors were not killed. The contractors were shot at and the police shot and killed the thugs

[pitinkie]

Witt is actually saying Blanco took her signed paper to get federalized...anyone else hear that??

[SamAdams76]

FoxNews now saying that no Army Contractors have been shot by New Orleans police. Instead, the New Orleans police were shooting at people who were shooting at Army contractors. This story is changing by the minute so we should all calm down for a while until all the facts are in.

Wetlands wetlands wetlands wetlands wetlands

Was she white or black?

Does it matter? Of course not.

[Howlin]

He's lying through his teeth.

Flagstaff would be a problem this time of year. Winter comes early in the high country and all the facilities are really outside facilities... once NAU is back in session the town is very crowded since the population doubles; so I can sort of understand.

Most will have to go further South. Phoenix has buildings at the fairgrounds, but they are pretty crummy and I would think depressing.

The LA Fair Grounds in Pomona would be good, but the fair is starting soon and I doubt Pomona would shut that down since it brings so much money into that area.

Now, if they could find some old Walmart stores that have been abandoned for the Super Walmarts.... I don't know if the old store in Kingman has been re-occupied yet, or not.

Problem with Arizona and Nevada, is we are growing faster than you can imagine as Californian's flood into the state.... along with illegal aliens.

[pitinkie]

Certainly is..scumbag. Anderson trying to get him to go all out on the blame of Bush.

[TexKat]

I don't know about you guys but this reminds me of the media reporting on the winner of the 2000 Presidential election.

Per Fox News: Now the contractors were not killed. The contractors were shot at and the police shot and killed the thugs

[CedarDave]

Yeah Anderson says they will get answers tonight when they have Witt on CNN!!!

Well, well, well. Recycled Clinton 'toons on scene to complicate things. Just what we need is multiple rescue commanders.

[pitinkie]

Whorealdo and Florita on tv

[Yellow Rose of Texas]

Contractors shot at, police responded
