Hurricane coverage



I've been watching CNN's coverage of Katrina. Man, I bet emergency crews absolutely DESPISE these guys, standing and driving around in these conditions!! While I know they're trying to report breaking news, some of them just seem unbelievably foolish. "We are unable to drive because of all of the debris pummeling our vehicle, and we can't see a thing in this rain. OK, I'm going to go outside now and show you guys what 110+ mph winds feel like! It's just too bad they made us leave the beach." Sheesh, what idiots.

Thoughts and prayers to all of you who live in the affected areas. It looks like a monster.
