I would try to get Target or Wal Mart or some store like that to donate.
I have been shameless in asking for donations.
Here is the actual link that goes from the Bradenton paper to Miami paper.

Best Line of the night, so far. From another board:
"I'm Sorry Mrs. Blanco, but you are no Lawton Chiles."
They are, unfortunately, not certified for rescue duty yet because of the wide rotor wash footprint and the fact that they don't have a rear winch yet. They're working on it, though.
I suspect that as the main-line choppers get taken out of service to be repaired, we will yet see the Osprey coming into the fight. The LCACs made it in today or yesterday, for example, and their contributions are invaluable. The LCACs just answered the "what the hell did we buy these for" question.
I will....under my wreckage!
Why am I not surprised by that?! I wondered where the mafia evacuated to before the hurricane. It's seems they are the "elected officials" who are still there.
The NSA does.
Aye! Now they all be FIERCE PIRATES! ARRRGGGGHHH!
Hope you are feeling better.

"Los Angeles County is refusing to take evacuees."
I bet they couldn't get any sort of guarantee for reimbursement. I'd be willing to bet that all these cities offering to take in "Our Gulf Coast Neighbors" have recieved only verbal (read: political promises) of reimbursement. We'll be hearing for years how some of those promises were never fulfilled and how smaller cities got stuck with very big bills. Los Angeles has to look out for its own citizens.
Tim sounded quite unhinged today. His nearly yelling questions at Chertoff was unprofessional in the extreme.
Howard Fineman really gave the game away a few days ago when he said they all supported the president after 9/11 but now will be going after him and won't make that mistake again. Or words to that effect.
Hopefully? His airplane - he owns a 707 that he uses as a private jet. He could take out over 100 people a trip.
If he does that, then I don't see any grounds for complaint.
This brings joy to my heart.
"Yes, dictionaries have become political."
LOL, what isn't anymore.
But tell me, when you here the word, refugee, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Maybe it shows my age, but the first thing that comes to my mind when I see or hear the word 'refugee' is someone that is escaping from another country because of some threat.
