Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

The evacuation of the Superdome is on hold because some asswipe is SHOOTING at a helicopter trying to airlift people out.

What is wrong with people???

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

OK, I think we should take the guns away from the crazy people....

I look more rad than Lutheranism

There's a guy who has stayed in NOLA, on the 10th (11th? a high one) floor of an office building in the central business district -- he's got a small group of people with him, a generator, and -- somehow -- enough supplies for them to hunker down. He's been running a webcam out the window, and is posting several updates a day on his blog: [link]

It's really, really interesting reading.

Yeah, I've been reading it after I posted that. Wow. If society ever collapses, the info in that blog will be very useful.

I am telling you now that the people we've been talking to say they are not recognizing the NOPD as a legitimate authority anymore, since cops have been seen looting in Walmarts and forcing people out of stores so they could back up SUVs and loot them. Don't shoot the messenger....

Huh.

I think I may imitate shrift and drive really fast to where there are donuts and coffee.

I've never been so eager to get to work, I tell you what.

Of course, now that I've been here for a few hours, I'm ready to stop doing Actual Work.
