Hurricane Katrina and Me...

[plan_D]

Watch it, les, the hurricane might sneak into your room at night and staple your scrotum to your thigh.

 

[lesofprimus]

Dont think theres much sneakin with a hurricane, but Ill keep my blind dog on the lookout.

Thx dude...

 

[Gnomey]

Good Luck Les, Hurricanes suck generally (Cat 5's even more so), at least you are on the high ground but still she is a hell of storm.

 

[Erich]

just heard that this ugly thing is going to tear right into Les's neighborhood/state with nothing to stop it.

Les get your famile outta there !!!!!

this is hideous

 

[Wildcat]

Look after yourself and your family Les, hope everything turns out alright for you guys.

 

[evangilder]

Hang tight Les. You will be in our thoughts through the this.

 

[The Jagdflieger Pips]

Hope everything turns out okay for you, Les, be safe.

 

[Nonskimmer]

Extensive damage is reported in Biloxi, and the whole Mississippi coast. I hope to Christ he and his family are alright.

Our thoughts and hopes are with you man. Get through this.

 

[plan_D]

Isn't Biloxi full of Frenchies? Or at least French descendants?

And he'll be fine. He probably wrestled the damn thing.

 

[cheddar cheese]

Hell yeah I heard that too. Made me pause for thought. Im not a praying man but...

 

[evangilder]

I have been watching the headlines. It looks like it's packing quite a wallop down there. I hope we hear from Les soon and I am hoping he and his fam are okay.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

actually D's proberly right on this one, keep watching the news he'll be bragging about it soon enough

but seriously i hope he's alright!

 

[trackend]

Any news yet guys on Les It looks really crap I thought the super bowl was not the best place to go its very high and if the wind had really got under the roof instead of popping a couple of seams it could have killed hundreds.
The domestic insurance premiums must be high as hell living in a hurricane belt Eric.
lets hope Les can send a message as soon as he can, I dont know what the Power supply is like in Biloxi at the moment I found this site but it only gives an outline http://www.sptimes.com/2005/08/30/Worldandnation/Damage_radiates_beyon.shtml

 

[FLYBOYJ]

It's a mess! I'm getting ready to leave for work, the news is saying estimates are saying this is worse than Andrew. $28 billion!!!!

 

[evangilder]

Yes, it looks pretty bad. I am sure the guys at Keesler AFB and the Gulfport Naval station are mobilizing to assist in rescue and cleanup. Hurricane Camille in 1969 was the worst one before this, and it is being said that this one is worse than Camille. Hopefully Les is doing alright.

 

[Erich]

last night I had heard that les hometown at least much of it was under water, 2nd street towards the beach was gone. am prayerful Les and the gang made it to higher ground and now this bitch heads northward wreking more havoc.........

 

[evangilder]

I have been watching as well. There is an online newpaper in Biloxi that has the latest updates at

[Nonskimmer]

Sonuvabitch. I know he said he was on the high ground, so I hope at least the surge didn't get him, but still. What a mess.

 

[Erich]

haven't heard from an aunt/uncle living in Atlanta which is still feeling the effects and will for another day at least with Tornados. Guess I should feel thankful that we only get floods in high rain years and plenty of forest fires yearly. You feel absolutely hopeless in situations like these

 

[evangilder]

The lack of communication is what doesn't help. I doubt they have power and phone lines are likely down as well. Keep the faith Erich, there is alot of power out in the whole Katrina swath.
