Same here.
Yeah...and also Biloxi and Gulfport...said he has to get them ALL cleared. He said it is getting wild...the FEMA and other emerg agencies starting to set up.
LOL. Madame Hamhocks
Good luck and God be with him, with that massive task.
I agree. Who votes for morons like her???
holy moly....check out the Sat now its really exploding..and it looks like its turning NW now..and maybe increasing in speed..hard to tellwith all the blow up
One time we took the kids downtown to go the Aquarium and IMAX. As we got ready to leave, it started to pour down rain. By the time we got to our car and were driving past where we had been just standing, they had already sandbagged all the doors to the shops and the water was already well over ankle deep. And that was just a brief summer thunderstorm!
I doubt they volunteered to go in most cases.
You do what your news director tells you to do.
But, if I were them, I would say no in this case, even if it cost me my job.
Journalism is an exciting career, but I would not risk my life over a hurricane. Perhaps covering a war. Not a hurricane.
Time for some cliches....
It's Bush's fault...

"Women and minorities hit hardest"

ah, thanks for correcting me
Ha! Each of her LEGS weigh 130 lbs!;)
That's real ugly.
August tourism in NOLA is probably the lowest point of the year. It's nasty hot and muggy.
People don't have to afford hotel rooms....schools always open gyms, etc for evacuees. Last time they evacuated Savannah IIRC they took the poor and/or elderly people to Macon on school buses (I remember some of them were grousing because the buses weren't air conditioned.)
to demonstrate absurdity by being upsurd. You know that the rats will blame Bush and global warming. And someone in the media will say "women and minorities hit hardest."
wow!
That is positively frightening.
For still being in an eyewall replacement cycle according to the NHC, it sure hasn't lost much punch at all......and may be strengthening with the latest pressure being DOWN again despite the cycle.
Just incredible...and scary. It certainly is getting big.
