Good. They can put them in all the abandoned buildings.

Why Freepers would discredit scanner reports and trust Gov. Blancobrain and the MSM is beyond me

That makes two of us! Unbelieveable is all I can say. Some of the same people believe CNN over anything FEMA or President Bush has to say as well!

One Christian to another, let's take the Church talk over to the religion forum.

All will be answered.

Arthel neville coming up on FOX. Shen went into NO.


She used to talk about how her Uncle was so and so in just about every show when she was on Good Day live.

And we have our first candidate for the preview and editing of the live shots.

Yep, I remember it being suggested, but like I said I'm sure Detroit would exploit the whole thing for Federal largess.

I cried over a 500.00 brake job at Christmas.

LOL. Thanks for the pick me up. : ) I have been tearing up off and on all day. I don't mean to laugh at your situation, but I know what you mean. I've been there (usually my issue is dentist's bills).

Decency and compassion have been tossed under the bus for ratings.

Oh, but there was a window (albeit broken) for compassion...the group of those-who-need-to-see-dead-bodies rationalized as a group that blurring out the faces of the dead on camera would provide decency. I am not exaggerating...

I agree with you. people have been telling me I'm nuts for saying Blanco is operating under DNC orders - she can't be this deatched from reality.

I meant no disrepect. My Bible is at my bedside and open for reading. Just found don-o's remark really hysterical in this trying time.

OK, even if I try to understand the looters' motivation... how do they think they are going to get this stuff out of the city? There will be no water or food left once they evacuate the citizenry. Doubt they let anyone on a bus carrying a plasma TV.

Stash it on the second floor or attic of a "safe house" and come back and get it after the city is reopened for retrieval of belongings in 6-8 weeks.

wish I could recall the FReeper who posted it.

I was thinking the same thing....it was at least yesterday, perhaps the day before.

Maybe this has been asked but the threads are almost humanly impossible to scan for this info: Does anyone know what has happened to cajungirl? Last I remember was the storm was starting to hit and she was being advised to get into an inner room to avoid flying glass. I can't recall seeing her post anything since then.

Precisely my point- they need to get them out- now.. These are not men who are equipped with what it takes to report this. I have a rule of thumb- if I find my attention is on the reporter of the story- rather than the STORY- I switch channels.

Real reporters- (don't ask me to name one offhand!) are in the background..they are a shadow..they present the facts in ways that are never self-promoting. I guess an example might be something on the Discovery Channel ..we become so engrossed in what we're learning FROM the reporter..but couldn't tell you anything about who THEY are at the end..
