"Underwater Buses"

A lot of heat has come down on the federal government, about not reacting in time to save the people who were socked by Hurricane Katrina.

However, what about the Mayor and the Governor?

Check out these pictures of buses that just sat there and are now under water and useless.

There were tourists who could not leave, because all the cars were rented. Why on Earth, didn't the mayor or for that matter any state officials use these since they had a mandatory evacuation?

It didn't help that almost no one batted and eye till the President finally told them to get the hell out of there.


There is no reason for these busses to have gone to waste.

"Katrina's Chaos"

When I heard this happened, I honestly had to look up who Kayne West was. I had heard the name, but had no idea who he was. Apparently, he is rapper and I guess a popular one.

From Yahoo News
Comedian Mike Myers was paired with West for a 90-second segment that began with Myers speaking of Katrina's devastation. Then, to Myers' evident surprise, West began a rant by saying, "I hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see a black family, it says they're looting. See a white family, it says they're looking for food."



While allowing that "the Red Cross is doing everything they can," West who delivered an emotional outburst at the American Music Awards after he was snubbed for an award declared that government authorities are intentionally dragging their feet on aid to the Gulf Coast. Without getting specific, he added, "They've given them permission to go down and shoot us."

All, I can say is this kind of crap disgusts me. Before, you go off saying Keith hates free speech, let me explain. There is a time and a place. I am sure WEst has the ability to get his views out there. If he doesn't he ought to fire his agent.

What kind of egotistical piece of turd turns a live benefit into their own political soap box? Please. You weren't asked to rant and rave, you were asked to help raise money. For his information National guardsman WERE BEING SHOT AT.

Response may have been slower than needed, but than again I was not there. I am not sure how difficult it was to get into a town where all the bridges were wiped out. I certainly don't see their waiting a justification for burning buildings or rapping innocent women.


Later he stated, "George Bush doesn't care about black people," the camera cut away to comedian Chris Tucker

I honestly, not believe the President doesn't care about black people.

In addition to the heart breaking stories of life lost and seeing the city look like something after the catylism. It makes me sick, hear we are nation trying to help Iraq to be more collapsed, and we look like a bunch of animals torching buildings and raping women. In addition, to surprised the world watching how rocked we have been by a Hurricane.

Osama must be doubled over laughing some place.

"Katinas Wrath"

I have been super busy lately. So, there have been no updates. I am sure since I am such a weather buff, and usually blog about hurricanes people were looking here to see what I wrote. I had lots of long hours at work, so its been rough to blog.


Well, what can you say? They are saying the death toll could be in the thousands. The storm was just insane by hurricane standards. Its rare for Cat 5 to hit, and it was easily one of the worst places in the country for it to hit. Considering New Orleans is below sea level.


What can be done for the soaring Gas prices? To fix the floods?

I really wanted to post a video of the man who lost his wife in the floods, but for the life of me. I could not find it online. CNN has it, up its just random commericals. I am really starting to hate online news sites.


Anyway, if anyone can find it that and post he URL that would be great. Anyone has an interesting stories they saw on the news that would be good too.

Its just insane, how bad it was. The prime of the hurricane season is just starting.
