LOL, I know what you mean..I now have the TV right next to my pc, looks terrible but it's convienient!
People who only had one television set? What is that supposed to mean? They were too busy to watch the news about a hurricane cat 3-5 about to hit them?? I am so beyond words at the spectacle they are making of themselves.
No offense to FEMA, but I'm my own first, best line of defense and they can't be everywhere :)
Make a Bloody Mary for me and don't take up space with celery...
C-Span still carrying the caucus.
Shocking about the one television. Just astounding.
Celery counts as a veggie!
OK, let me try
these are his "words"
channels from Baton Rouge to NOLA has deep water and can move vessels in and out of NOLA
challenge is to restore navig aids
night ops are out for some time to come
lot will be up to river pilots to see how the river is due to changes
corp has done everything it can to protect city
there has been some discussion that had they had funds that city would have been protected
his personal and prof opinion is that that is not the case
then described some projects
holding up paper graphic outlining levees
about half has flooding half has no flooding
multiple parrishes are impacted
where levee broke is as good as it was going to get
it was rated for cat 4
intensity of storm exceeded capacity of levee
so next question, why cat 3 and not 4 or 5
answer, we knew capacity of this levee, and that is why mayor others evacuated the city
had they not done that, loss would have been much greater
also, war in Iraq has NOT impacted corp funding levels
Glad I scrolled down and saw you had requested it. Saved me from a flame and the humiliating "never mind" I find myself having to do too often LOL!
Not a real flame for that southern "ALWAYS be polite and mind your manners gene in my dna won't let me cut loose with both barrels, even anonymously--it's more like a child's pop gun.
We really need to nip this in the bud. It's time for quite a few "have you no decency, sir?" letters to the editor concerning these political opportunists.
The CBC should stop bitching, and take a look a real poverty. Take for example, Cuba or Haiti.
"Did anyone try to start them up?"
Good question. I bet not. Though they should have been right at the dome from the beginning. The Mayor is guilty of incompetence and negligence.
Oh no, more reparations? Call Wachovia.
I heard a local radio host this morning on 540am in Orlando say that those shooting at the rescue helicopter on the roof could have to do with the mob delaying the evac. until they can get some valuables out of town. He feels there is something bigger going on than just "ticked off people" or "druggies."
Thank you for the information!
Someone interviewed last night on Fox said Jesse Jackson had sent a bus and plucked her daughter off a bridge or highway. I wonder if this is true?
Funny. Watching some of these donations pile in, people with and without wealth ARE stepping up to the plate. Are they going to turn their ugly eye on more celebrities, as people of "wealth" from their own party to pitch in?
So see, it's not that unhealthy after all :-)
