Not to mention, they sent out three trucks of water early on (which FEMA refused, naturally).
FEMA. I understand (but don't excuse) how the top management can be so screwed up by political appointees, but I don't understand all the stories about FEMA officials who were in the city turning away help and supplies. Is it misguided idealism to think that career emergency management people might think and act on their own based on the conditions around them?
Oh dear, shirtless Harry Connick Jr. evacuating an elderly neighbor should NOT be making me tingly. I'm evil. Evil. But Godalmignty is he pumped.
Then there was the story of FEMA disconnecting communications cables....
I swear, FEMA must be run by Cylons.
me, not giving stuff away, but I am offering housing.
Seriously? That's weird. Someone in your neighborhood had posted both sewing stuff and some merch from a place you used to work.
But Godalmignty is he pumped.
His gym equipment tours with him.
Are you parents heading to your place to stay for a while, now?
Hard to say. My dad will probably stay in Baton Rouge, because UNO has an operation up and running there. Whether my mother comes to stay here for a while will probably depend on what the housing situation is there. Right now, they're still in a hotel.

Jefferson Parish, I think? The Sheriff went and reconnected them and then stationed armed guards. They were talking about it on Meet the Press on Sunday.
5:18 P.M. - NEW YORK (AP): Michael Jackson has written a song to help raise funds for the victims of Hurricane Katrina and will soon record it.
Tentatively titled, "From the Bottom of My Heart," the singer plans to ask other musicians to join him in recording it.
Spokeswoman, Raymone K. Bain says Jackson hopes to record the song within two weeks in the style of "We Are the World," which he co-wrote and produced in 1985 to raise money for famine relief efforts in Africa.
Jackson has been mostly reclusive since he was acquitted of child molestation charges in California on June 13.
