Watching the news. I don't think people 'stealing' groceries should be called looters.
Me either. It's not like they can buy food anywhere.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
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.

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