They happen 1, because of original sin; 2, because of the flood that Noah lived through. If you want to put it into a Christian perspective.
I was feeling pretty down last night about the lack of support we were seeing for the people in NO. Then I happened across a couple of people telling their story on Fox. One guy was a nut, but he commented something along the lines of making it because of his friend Jesus Christ. I know God is with these people, and He has made His presence known to them oh so clearly.
Cajungirl - many many many prayers are with you... Be SAFE!
Wow, sorry to hear that cajungirl. Please keep us updated!
I cannot read this thread but I don't know what is rumor and whast is fact. Can anyone tell me?
I heard downtown in lockdown, carjackings, people roaming. Is that true? I heard the campus is having problems with roamers.
Anyone know anything?
Maybe the 72 hour rule should be revisited. I was thinking maybe mandatory should mean mandatory or pick a different word to express why people should evac.
No, but I know the response of the members of the press in the White House Briefing Room will be very well-oiled.

Bump. Here's the live link.

Now industrial buildings in flames a few hundred yards from Shep near Superdome - just when it seemed like maybe things were coming under control in that area - now we have heat, flames & smoke ...
...with their deepest, darkest, evil imaginations running full tilt. They think like the criminals they are.
You're all heart. Maybe one day you'll be in a disaster and lose everything and somebody will offer you a job picking stringbeans...better start practicing :-)
I've had worse jobs than that when I was hungry. And yes, I have been in hurricanes and earthquakes.
What is your suggestion for getting these people on their feet? Just giving them a never-ending handout is not going to help them.
weapons not allowed on campus.
How do you listen to this feed? Media Player9 isn't loading it. Thanks.
