This is my own little soapbox. Disclaimer: It is not written by someone you think you know, but by her evil twin. Absolutely nothing said here is true. Everything, including the last statement, is a complete work of fiction. This blog is completely boring, and includes entries on when I last washed my dishes, how many pairs of socks I've crocheted, and the occasional rant. These are not the droids you're looking for. Move along.

WTF?!?
Yeesh! Okay... I can see the people down in New Orleans being extremely frustrated with their situation... but taking pop-shots at the rescuers? WTF?!? Like that is going to make your situation any better? The looting was bad enough...
It's gang and survival mentality combined. I can't even begin to understand what those folks down there are going through. Not that some of them aren't making things worse for themselves. I heard on the news this morning that a helicopter carrying supplies for a hospital wasn't able to land because the landing area was surrounded by looters with guns.
It all seems very surreal. Scary. And very very very sad.
