So does anybody know if a bunch of helicopters are staged at Sherman? I just had four CH-47's (that's what they sounded like at least) fly over my house headed that way. If there is a bunch down there I might drive that way early in the morning to get some pics...

The Pizza delivery drivers union didn't have an issue with working during the hurricane?

See...I was getting hungry...and was going to order something from these stand-up guys at dominoes.

Then you posted and I lost my appetite. Thanks man, thanks. I get to throw up every time Single Seat posts. :D

Yes, those hangars are now the NATTC (A-school) gym and NEX.
Thanks -- wow, the NEX??? We had one that was a splinterville reject at the south end of the old parade ground. Mebbe still the current parade ground ....

Its a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.

You don't evacuate, Gustsav slam NO, and its back to "George Bush hates black people". Everyone loses.

You evacuate the city b/c the weather guessers say that Gustav is going to schwack NO, but instead, it doesn't. Now, you have people pissed off because you told them to leave.. even though they knew what could happen if they didn't.

Seem that the only way the gov't could win this one was to evacuate and then have NO get schwacked. But wait, if the levees didn't hold, isn't that the gov't fault too?

People don't realize that Pres. Bush and the rest of the federal gov't and state gov't didn't decide to build a city below sea level in the middle of hurricane alley.

Just wait till Ike makes hurricane status and drives the same path as Gustav & Katrina. I can see it now.. "The government evacuated us for Gustav and nothing happened... I think I'm gonna ride this one out cuz I just don't feel like going through all that again..." and then...
