So, I've got a blog . . . Now what?

Everyone seems to be jumping on the blog bandwagon so I thought I'd give it a go as well. Haven't really got a clue what I'm going to talk about, but that's never really stopped me from saying something, so . . .

Mandatory evacuation of New Orleans

Hurricane Katrina is a category 5 storm that appears to be heading for New Orleans. I've just watched the mayor of New Orleans announce mandatory evacuation for the city. My mind boggles at the kind of devastation a category 5 storm can cause especially to a place that is basically below sea level to begin with.

I weathered a category 4 hurricane almost 40 years ago and I know the kind of devastation that caused.

I hope those people who cannot - or will not - evacuate make it through Katrina.

Holy crow. I just had a look at it on the weather map.....
Alone the evacuation of New Orleans is historic, I think.
I hope it all goes well, and that your corner of the country isn't going to get too much stormy weather and rain because of it.

They need to carry them out if necessary - category 5 is not to be messed with. And kiddo if it heads your way - duck and run if necessary - kid, cats, and all - head for my bro's house if you need to.

I just checked the forecast and it's still tracking NNW toward New Orleans. They're predicting landfall within the next 12 hours.

I'd sit out a category 3 here in town, but anything else and I'm gone.
