Well, nobody's perfect; least of all me...

New Orleans has levees not levies.
Levees are built to hold the water back while levies are taxes on property!
Oops, sorry what a dummy I am!
I'm so stupid! I don't deserve a computer with a keyboard to write my drivel.Take it away! Sorry... a momentary lapse into drama queen status.

Anyway, breathe... I made another more serious mistake New Orleans is targeted to receive the brunt of Hurricane Gustav 115 MPH storm at 2 P.M. Monday not Tuesday!
Thankfully, the news just reported all evacuees have left already today, Sunday evening.

Just in a newer report: now our news is saying Hurricane Gustav may very well just skim off of New Orleans, and go a smidgen to their west.
Still not great for their neighbors either; hope they left too.

The candidates are delaying the Republican Convention, and are asking you to raise money for the hurricane victims.
I heard earlier the Democrats are doing the same thing and also encouraging for volunteers to help out after.

This is all being discussed after the President stated that he wasn’t going to the convention, and this was because he would be needed to be available for the victims of this current hurricane. But didn't I just say this time they all evacuated!
The nightmare of Katrina, I guess it is haunting him, as it is all of us.

Hope things aren’t severe at all, and no one will be needed!

But of course that is unrealistic, and idealistic.

Clap those hands and pray or whatever works for you to wish well on the world.

Meanwhile, here at home; those feeder bands from Gustav have kept us all very wet all day not to mention those gusts of winds to 40 mph.
And we are still nearly 250 miles to the west of that nasty monster!

Please have a good night and think kindly of us weather ugly regions, and perhaps when you need us to do the same... we will!
