Gustav is nothing more than a tropical depression inland, and evacuees are still on hold on when they can go home.
Hope for their sakes it is soon, but electric is still out for nearly 1.5 million homes in the area of where the storm hit.
Miraculously the levees held!
Even though the actual date of completion of their fortification is 2011, and they were only 20% where they eventually will be.
Hanna is a tropical storm once again and is still supposedly heading to our east coast waters, and we should only be on the rim of her. More than likely her trail will be left from Thursday and Friday of this week. Ike is looking like the one for us south west coast dwellers to be watching, so far no one knows just where he may decide to go, possibly a Saturday landfall.
Josephine is way away at this writing and we are told not to be concerned with her at this time.
What do any of us make of this newest information about Governor Palin's 17 year old daughter Bristol?
We all know that Mom does NOT believe in SEX education in the schools, only abstaining, but why didn't she inform her daughter of this?
Kids will be kids, and that is why they should be taught how to deal with sex in a safe way, abstaining should be the first consideration of all youngsters, but if they do want to experiment they should have all the know how of what their responsibility is in doing an adult act, and should know how to prevent diseases like: STDS, AIDS, etc., and of course pregnancy!
Come on Mom, what are you living in the 1950's?
Even in the wild 1960's we were opening up the discussion on the S-E-X word.
They were called the Sexy Sixties!
I still think that this woman Sarah Palin is fascinating with a compelling history, and admirable attitude about loving her family.
Also in the news right now, which does concern me is the Casey Anthony case whose 3 year old daughter Calee has been missing since June, and the Mom, Casey only reported her missing in July.
The toddler is now presumed dead, evidence in the mother's car was tested for DNA and decaying tissue seems to make the authorities believe this is the case.
Casey was just 19 when she had her daughter, and her Mom, the grandmother was responsible for her keeping her daughter and not giving her up for adoption or even terminating the pregnancy although Calee's father was killed in an automobile accident prior to her birth.
Add in post partum depression, and would think you have the makings for disaster not unlike what the authorities are assuming.
NO wonder Grandma and Grandpa are hoping and praying THEIR grandchild has not perished at the hands of that Mother, their daughter just another unprepared teenage Mom not emotionally ready for what motherhood entails.
After the deed is done, children want to win back their parents respect and will more than likely do whatever those parents tell them to do whether they are ready or not.
Is this not something profound to think about?
Good night to all, and my mind is spinning from all this.
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
