And "hey" to you. :-)
Leno's a rerun, not sure why.
Campus serves as medical center
Crates of syringes, urine cups, medication and IV tubes surround
clusters of wall-to-wall hospital beds in the Pete Maravich Assembly
Center. Hundreds of military police are scattered at building
entrances.

If I had the power, I'd gladly give you mine. Beware, most are democrats.
um, yea Leno,,,i was just saying i didn't hear him mention it??? not even a we send our condolences or anything,,,I stand corrected if i missed it,,,,,
According to a friend in the know...Many of the houses in NO were rental properties owned by a few...They recieved compensation from the government for those living in them at a rate much higher than the "pig sty" they were renting. They became quite rich, spending little if any on the property at the expense of government (us) and socially those in NO.......Looks like their fatted cow just dried up....Hope they don't qualify for a red cent.
Great letter but it does reveal what a truly detestable person Joe is that he couldn't handle this piece. His response seems only fitting to a person completely disrespectful and obnoxious, clearly yours was anything but.
I agree.
Leno can't be a re-run, he talked about Bush nomination John Roberts as chief justice,,,that is breaking news,,,
I'm not sure this has been posted. It's from another thread:

Mayor Nagin: Gov. Blanco Delayed Rescue
newsmax
Monday, Sept. 5, 2005 11:38 p.m. EDT Mayor Nagin: Gov. Blanco Delayed Rescue
After days of blaming the federal officials for not responding quickly enough to the Hurricane Katrina crisis, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin praised President Bush on Monday - and charged that Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco had delayed federal rescue efforts by 24-hours.
"I'm so happy that the president came down here," Nagin said of Bush's Friday visit to Louisiana in an interview with CNN. "He came down and saw it, and he put a general on the field. His name is General Honore. And when he hit the field, we started to see action."
But Nagin had harsh words for his state's leaders, telling CNN: "What the state was doing, I don't frigging know. But I tell you, I am pissed. It wasn't adequate." The New Orleans Democrat said he urged Bush to meet privately with Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco during the visit. The meeting took place aboard Air Force One, he said.
After reviewing the crisis with Gov. Blanco, Bush summoned Nagin for a private chat - where, according to Nagin, Bush explained: "Mr. Mayor, I offered two options to the governor. I said . . . I was ready to move today. The governor said she needed 24 hours to make a decision."
Reacting to the governor's footdragging, Nagin lamented: "It would have been great if we could of left Air Force One, walked outside, and told the world that we had this all worked out."
"It didn't happen, and more people died."
Eventually, there will be construction jobs in that whole Gulf Coast area....which will be some good employment opportunites...
I just cannot imagine moving my family back to a city that is below sea level though...even if I were rich, it just seems stupid.
but I am seeing Shep on letterman now,,,,,letterman delayed b/c of local news lasting longer tonight,,,
Plus the federal program to overhaul the levees will probably last past most of our lifetimes.
Does anyone know how old Shep is?? I hear rumor that he is like 50 something, just alot of plastic surgery,,,,,
That would sure make me stop and think.
The one I;m looking at is, I think. It looks like one from a while back when he had Kathy Griffiths (ugh) and that Everybody Loves Ray Lurch guy on. I think he was talking about the normal nomination, long before.
Someone just posted it is a rerun, Leno, that is..probably because of the holiday that is Labor Day...
Not much of a holiday for our hurricane people.
All of us on FR need to keep reminding ourselves that Miss. and Alabama suffered quite a bit of damage as well.
The thing is, we don't hear them complaining so much...but I am sure there are many needs there, as well.
I don't think anyone will want to live in NO for a very, very long time if they have any other options, unless they Galveston it.
