Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe us Natterers are quietly releived that Katrina wasn't as destructive as we though it'd be?

I was busy reading the news. The two oak trees in Jackson Square next to the Cathedral went down. The lakeside is flooding. 9th ward is flooding. But mostly the levees are holding and I think they'll be okay. Damage but not a toxic soup bowl thirty feet deep. Probably comparable to Hurricane Betsy or Camille. Which is plenty bad, but NOLA's still going to be there when it's over.

from my mom
I spoke to B(her sister) about 20 minutes ago the eye was about 20 to 30 miles south of her and she was trying to play solitaire but had forgotten how due to playing on the computer. Anyway as I was speaking to her a forth pine tree in their front yard fell, not on the house so far, she most likely has a couple more hours to go before the worst is over. I haven't heard from J( her brother). I think he had more oaks then pines. Pine are usually the first to go. She is to call me later when things calm down.the mom

A building in Metairie has collapsed, and people are believed to be trapped inside. Rescue officials were still trying to get to any possible victims but were hampered by continuing severe weather. In addition, the East Bank of Jefferson Parish is flooded -- including East Jefferson Hospital. There are also reports of waist-deep water inside homes throughout Metairie.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Oh, beth, I hope all of your relatives and their homes are okay.
