I'm toying with the idea of getting a pay-as-you-go phone/plan from T-Mobile. Anyone have any experience they want to share, or an alternate recommendation that I could get up and running by Thursday morning?
Skipping ahead like crazy to say -- if you don't have a phone by Thursday, my cell is yours to monopolize this weekend.
James Purefoy plays Marc Antony in Rome.
Can't beat that dude with a stick. Or, I mean, you can, and that is what is fun about him.
Big-assed photo of Katrina from space:
That pic looks faked. Not saying it is, but where's the source?
Looks like it's from NASA. Here are some of their other images.

Thanks, honey. I'd be a lot calmer if I could just get in touch with my parents.
A lot of my Dad's family evacuated to Memphis.
Dana, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
I don't know how much I could do from DC, but if there's anything you need, let me know.
-t, if you see this, that goes for you too.
Some of the NOAA satellite images are hard to credit. It's pretty amazing.
From a distance.

But none of their pics look like this [link] Not even the same angle. I'm just suspicious because it looks *very* clean (there are some digital edges that look like google earth), it's on some dude's website that just happens to have other photo manipulations-- and I can't find this great pic anywhere else.
Dana--
I have a Virgina Mobile phone you can use this weekend. Well, it's Mom's.
It needs to be reactivated and I'll do that tonight when I get home. I'm driving up to Atlanta Thursday. I'll email you my number and the cell number I'm using so we can coordinate how to get you the phone.
Thanks, Allison. I appreciate the offer, but I think I'm covered. It seems likely that it might be a while before my parents get here, and I'm going to want the phone long-term. Or, if miraculously, everything is solved, I can use shrift's phone over this weekend.
The DragonCon schedule is up, by the way. I saw at least three Serenity panels, all scheduled for huge rooms.
