Yeah, New Orleans is fucked NO DOUBT ... baut have you seen Mississippi? DAMN!!
 

Just watching Night Line with Alfred E. Newman aka Ted Koppel and they just did a segment on the lives destroyed on the Mississippi side as well.

Not taking anything away from the ongoing disaster from rising water leverls in Louisiana ... it just got me to do a little more searching on Yahoo and Google.

This shit is just so sad and crazy!!!

The surge from Hurricane Katrina was so powerful when the storm made landfall Monday, that it floated this Jaguar automobile into a neighboring swimming pool in Biloxi, Miss., while destroying the homes around it.

Only the toilet fixtures remained Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2005 of the Sun Tan Motel in Biloxi, Miss., following the landfall of Hurricane Katrina. Many businesses, homes and popular tourist spots were completely demolished by the storm. Even the yet-to-be-opened Hard Rock Cafe across the street, suffered tremendous damage.

:Oh crap

The death count will be much higher then we all think !

I messaged an old buddy in Mississippi on icq today. NO repy yet :( hope he is ok

No doubt. I bet its in the thousands at least...

it's more than sad... let's send prayers out to all those people who lost their homes and more...

Guys I live here in MS and the state is going to be fucked...one of the poorest states in the nation and we are losing half a million a day due to all the casinos being destroyed in Biloxi, plus all the damage and homeless and jobless

Maybe the Casino's being gone is not really a bad thing.

Just my cents though:)

Sorry to hear that detoxed ... that's why I posted this thread - to shed a little more light on the scope of this ... parts of Alabama are seriously fucked too :(

It's all so damn crazy!

:Oh crap

The majority of the Casino business is from tourists. Now add the additional revenue from hotels and resturaunts to the half million per day they're losing and it's ALL BAD!

:2 cents:

yeah, it's going to cost loads to get it all fixed, well thank god global warming doesn't exist George Bush!

I'm in NY and I don't know how this country is going to recover. It's horrible :Oh crap

that is an idiotic comment.....

i dont see why ? George bush has stated int he past that global warming is a myth ( in so many words )

Bush has/had a chance to help reverse some of the effects of human damage to the planet via the kyoto accord, and has chosen for the most part to ignore them.. ( as well as every leading scientist in the world practically )
