Hurricane Katrina
Brynne:
Add me to the list, Reg! Very relieved to hear from you.
It's such a tragic situation and I'm pulling for you and all of the New Orleans area. This is so unreal.
ElviraGoth:
Ditto to what everyone else said, reg. Was hoping you grabbed a computer so we'd hear from you when you had a chance. Have been thinking about you all week, hoping you'd gotten far enough out of town and wondering what you were going to have left at home to go back to. The traffic lines they showed on tv that were heading out of town made me think that a lot of people probably were going to get stuck on the highway. Glad you got out early enough to be safe.
Hope you hear soon about your loved ones. A coworker of mine has a boyfriend whose son is in Baton Rouge and he (boyfriend) hasn't been able to reach the boy to find out how he's doing, either. It's unbelievable how much damage there is there. May whatever Supreme Being you pray to (or not) be with you and yours.
Renatus:
I'm really glad that you're okay, reggikko.

I'm glad you save thought about you for the last few days, when you see the devastation on TV you wonder how anyone can escape that, but the human spirit is really resilient, I know they will rebuild that city again and make it stronger.
I don't call that "spirit", I call that "stupidity". I mean, look at Florida. This shit happens EVERY FRIKKEN YEAR. The entire state is razed to the ground practically on a yearly basis, but they never learn and always build the same crappy buildings and wonder why they all sink into the sea every year. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Then again, how much do you expect from people who have problems operating a voting machine, anyway?
These people live in willful denial of the obvious fact that anything that happens once happens ALL the time, and you should plan accordingly. Remember: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Reggikko may have lucked out this time, but that doesn't mean she should get complacent. Start installing that pressure dome right now.
Marvin Kosh:
It's vaguely reminiscent of the kid's story about the three little pigs.
