Per WDSU: Oakwood Mall in Jefferson parrish is burning out of control. It is in the west bank area where it is relatively dry. Not enough water pressure to fight the fire, says Chief.

Another great pic - we are lucky to have young men and women who know that the price of freedom is duty, honor, sacrifice.

Bless all those who wear a uniform and protect us from enemies from without and within.

To: anyone

Anyone seen the video of what looks like Marine One (the President's helicopter) down in the area?

Its an H-60 with "United States of America" on the side. Looks just like what you'd see on the White House lawn.

I wonder if it's down there already in anticipation of Bush's visit, and is helping out today.
