Willow ,'Empty Places'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Still, it's bad enough that it is archived on the interbunny. I don't need my failed attempts at race sluttage shown on basic cable.
ftr, I don't need any potentially successful ones shown either. I'm demure that way.
Ah, so THAT'S the way you are demure.
Watching the news. I don't think people 'stealing' groceries should be called looters.
I agree, Trudy. And at this point, with all that water, and no electricity, the people taking things like groceries are performing a salvage job, more than anything else.

Me either. It's not like they can buy food anywhere.
Urge. To. KILL.
2:07 P.M. - (AP) -- A top casino executive is calling on the Mississippi Legislature to enact emergency legislation to keep the state's coast gaming industry alive.
Treasure Bay Casino President and CEO Bernie Burkholder says most of the casino hotels on the coast survived Hurricane Katrina, but several gambling barges suffered extensive damage. He says it could take several years to rebuild.

In general, yes. But you can't eat jewelry.
More news:
"WWL-TV Reporter quotes officials as saying there may now be 60,000 people in the Superdome and that more people are still being urged to go there."
If there were someone there to pay they likely would. "Hey, lots of food! I'm starving! Ah well, no one at the register... nebbermind"

Because, after all, if the mob ain't happy, ain't no one happy.
One of the casino barges is sitting above the beach. That is, it floated over the beach and is sitting about 50 feet inland. Another one is sitting on a main road.
Are there people stealing jewelry? I mean, that's the kind of thing the vendors had time to lock up, given that they do it pretty quickly every night. So far, I'm inclined to give the looters a break-- a lot of that merchandise is a total loss, and can't be sold for awhile.
For people who don't know how. To bake a potato.
I can make lasagna from scratch (including the noodles), but somehow baking a potato is still hit and miss for me.
I think I'm easily bored.
