Is there online video of Ted Koppel's interview with the head of FEMA? My co-workers want to see Koppel kicking some ass.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

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.

According to that google map, my house may have escaped flooding. Houses near me did, apparently.
And now for the bad news - my grandmother had a stroke last night. She's in ICU and the dorctors are asking what kind of religious observances she'd like, so it doesn't sound good. I guess it's good that I'm on my way there, but I feel really bad for my mom. Grandma's 85 and has a variety of health problems that she just barely manages to keep from overwhelming her, I guess one of them got the upper hand.

Oh, -t. I'm sorry. You already have too much to deal with.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Dammit, I should do some work today...
But here's a lead paragraph to a news story I never thought I'd read about an American city:
NEW ORLEANS - An explosion jolted residents awake early Friday, illuminating the pre-dawn sky with red and orange flames over the city where corpses rotted along sidewalks and thousands remained stranded — crying for food, water and a way to evacuate.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
-t and Heather, my prayers are with you.
Thanks everyone for the kind words yesterday; I passed them on to Bob Bob and he thanks you too. Papa Bob Bob seems out of the woods (he had a small heart attack during surgery, but this may have been a blessing in disguise).
Agree that the emergency response and the response to the response has been maddeningly inadequate. But I'm going gray today to get work done.
