Aww, I could almost hear the sound of soft music and everyone in their jammies about to hear a story...

I had a great time there too. I loved the quarter, and I stayed in the garden district, it was so lovely.

This is realy upsetting me: In some blogs there are people saying that we shouldn't do too much for New Orleans cause these people knew it was high risk, and even someone said cause it had a sleazy reputation that we shouldn't care as much!

Last night on NBC they did some coverage and all those people on the overpass really got to me, they just need water! And where are they going to the bathroom? Then what was really shocking, was an older couple were waving to a national guard truck and they truck just passed right by! They...

Ahhh that is so cool. I would never leave without my Sammy, in fact I figured it out, living in SF bay area and the quake threat is here, that I would crate him FIRST thing if a quake hits. Then do my other duties. This hurricane got me off my duff with all this too, I have my water stored...

I meant as in wars and such. They tend to suck a lot of money and resources and we have some real threats as in disasters at home we are neglecting.

I just heard the most creepy thing on the radio, apparently FEMA put out a report in 2000, before 9/11 that the three biggest threats to the US as catastrophic events are a hurricane in New Orleans, an earth quake in San francisco and a terrorist attack in New York. Wow, and this was not...

Yahoo has a slide show of destruction, it's so hard to grasp. It's like this biblical thing. http://news.yahoo.com/fc/world/hurri...ropical_storms

I just read that Venezuela is giving food and fuel. I am sure more will step up.

It was interesting, this woman on the radio had a thought that one reason they kept REALLY STRONGLY stressing how bad this one was (the NO mayor looked literally like he saw a ghost when he talked to the public right before) is that we are so inundated with news and weather 24/7 now that people...

That does sound soothing!

Oh no, I thought that is was downgraded and things were not as bad as that....? Also what will happen as it continues on north? Does it just lose steam....

Congrats! Well with online the stress is so relieved since you don't physically have to go to campus, gosh it helps when working and it's raining etc. One thing I did when doing online courses was I did my homework on Sat morning-it was easier to get into the groove on Sat, and then I let...

I saw that too, also there was another woman who chose to stay that was interviewed by phone (she was in a house but still) She said they always say it's going to be so badand it never is....GoshI hope these people are ok. I know some simply can't afford to leave.

I thought I'd start a new thread about this. Seems that Katrina is now a 4 which is at least not bad news, but still very dangerous obviously. due to hit New Orleans in less than 12 hours.

Wow, I mean I could tell that the meteorologists were really concerned this time, I mean one guy looked freaked out. Damn, and then I heard a tape of some woman who stayed cause they "Always scare us with these warnings" but this one sounds true, I hope that woman lives. I feel sick to my...

Isn't it due at New Orleans at like dawn? They say all the prep time for this has passed, now it's just time to wait.
