WDSU is reporting that water has reached a 2nd floor of a casino in MS.

10:40 a.m.: Water Reaches 2nd Floor Of Beau Rivage Casino Water has reached the second floor of the Beau Rivage Casino in Biloxi, Miss. There are reports of a 22-foot storm surge in the area.

Aimee, that's funny.

She'll be needing all that water to put out the burn she just got.

...right after I wake up I say things as though I was drunk.

If she can outlaw editing, I'm sure banning floods should be no problem.

Here is a yahoo slideshow.

I wonder how Ann Rice is doing.

Anne Rice sold her Garden District mansion in NO. She bought a home in La Jolla, CA. She may still maintain some kind of residence in NO, but I think she got tired of all the fans visiting.

I like picture 25:

Mike Keller, a resident of Biloxi, Mississippi, stands in the rain while mooning Hurricane Katrina just after dawn August 29, 2005.

Now I'm wondering when Tulane cancelled classes. During the time I was there, there was one storm where there were "New Orleans will be under 50 feet of water!" predictions on TV when it was in the Gulf, and the school kept sending us emails saying, "We're monitoring the storm, and it's not going to be a problem, so everyone just stay put." By the time the school finally said, "OK, this storm doesn't really look like it's calming down any, classes tomorrow are cancelled, evacuate if you can," it was too late and there was too much traffic to be able to get anywhere. (One of my friends called her parents and told them to sue the school if she died.)

She may still maintain some kind of residence in NO, but I think she got tired of all the fans visiting.

I remember reading that she bought a house in Metairie (a suburb of NO.)

Anne Rice sold her Garden District mansion in NO.

That's actually kind of disappointing.
