During it's Isaac coverage, the Weather Channel on Sunday referred repeatedly to Mississippi as the "landmass between New Orleans and Mobile".
Not to be outdone, a regular YP fan created a facebook page that has over 22,000 likes in less than 24 hours.
NOW...MS is just a landmass?
I guess we are ALL Landmassians, now. ;o)

The one thing that I know about us Landmassians is that, in times of adversity, we pull up our bootstraps, start a Face Book page, and open a web store sellin’ T-shirts. lol
One thang we seem to be lernin’ is how to photoshop.

Oooops! I burped.
I’m SO embarrassed. ;o)
That's because the good, self-reliant people of overwhelmingly-Christian and Conservative Mississippi didn't pillage and riot like Holder's People in the New Orleans Ninth Ward. Plus Mississippians prudently voted good people into office unlike the fool Ray Nagin, Mayor of Chocolate City, and their imbecilic governor Kathleen Blanco.
NOW...MS is just a landmass?
Well, consider the source. The Weather Channel is part of the enemy media, NBC. Along with their web presence on weather.com, their extreme left agenda is comprised of pushing the myth of global warming and ginning up lies about the effect of coal on the so-called "environment". Their forecasts are notable for inaccuracy (WeatherBell, co-founded by the great Joe Bastardi is infinitely better) and hype. It's not surprising that the Obama-heads at the Weather Channel so readily dismiss the wonderful state of Mississippi. I sent a courtesy ping to onyx who knows of my deep admiration for the Magnolia State and her wonderful people, including a number of friends my college days now living there and doing God's Work as preachers. Frankly, being overlooked by the Weather Channel is a feather in the cap of Mississippi!
On a related note, in my totally NON-EXPERT but Totally Optimistic OPINION, it appears that Isaac is falling apart.
Jim Cantore at 8 PM last night on Twitter. Interesting choice of words: “I have to admit the satellite impression of #Isaac is not one of a rapidly developing storm.”
Say what you will about Fox’s Shepherd Smith, a MS native, but he had great vindictive fun with this tonight. He tore the Weather Channel a new one. I don’t think they’ll forget the name of that “Landmass” very soon.
LOL He still a peice of s***
We are ready to go. Not much left but to hunker down and pray. GOD bless you all... we will come through this one too!
LLS
Do you know the one thing that perplexes me?
“They” seem to think that there aren’t any blacks in Mississippi, or that they all live in the northern half of the state.
Maybe they didn’t/don’t care about them because they aren’t inner city?
I just don’t get it.
You came to help after Katrina? God bless you!
I live 2,500 miles away from MS. (I’m preparing to move back part time) However, for at least five years, every time I flew in and out of Jackson, there were groups...mostly kids...who gave up a lot to travel as far as they did just to make a 3.5 hour drive down to the coast to help rebuild.
I don’t think they went through JAX because they have FNC on the TV, and fresh flowers in the bathrooms, though that’s what attracted me. ;o)
We were so blessed by all of you to be so unselfish as to give up your time and treasure to help out your fellow man. Thank you!
I’ve never been so proud of this country in my life.*
*different meaning from MO’s. ;o)
I pray you are right!
Thanks!
“LOL He still a peice of s***”
Yes...but he’s OUR piece of s***. ;o)
Bernard Marx, I have a T-shirt on the way, along with a clear sticker for my car.
Who says we are dumb. We have a web store. lol
I don’t like Shep much, but he is a Mississippi native, and he’s proud of it.
If it weren’t for him, I don’t think the public would have known one 100th of the news of the devastation that Katrina caused in MS.
Ha! That is AWESOME!
The one thing we’ve had to learn is to have a good sense of humor.
Proud Landmassian here! ;o)
My prayers are with you, and with all who are in the storm’s path.
I know you will be hit harder than my family will be, but I don’t believe it will be as bad as Katrina.
Thanking God for that!
This is what it’s come to.
We are a landmass.
I wonder if that’s gonna make my butt look big? lol
That’s good news!
I saw somewhere else that Cantore tweeted that MS will never be forgotten, but wasn’t able to find it on his twitter feed.
That’s what makes this hard to stomach.
They forgot MS during and after Katrina, and now we’re just a land mass.
;o(
Not my work, but good to see that folks aren’t wasting any time mocking TWC.
