Pssst, Ann Rice; Quite honestly, I haven't gone to your mardigras in 15 years because it is nothing but a good way to get mugged by one of the members of your HUGE criminal population, and I don't admire public nudity and debauchery, besides. People at your jazz fest at least seem to keep their clothes on and are not fornicating in doorways in your truly lovely historical district. I can get your food at any of a number of restaurants within 25 miles of where I live in the middle of rural nowhere in Texas-and I love to read, but I think your books stink-stick to writing your depressing supernatural fantasies and leave the helping of people to those who know what the hell they are doing...

Disgusting. There are a million things to write about and she wries about older men having sex with teenage foster daughters and she writes about vampires. But the paycheck is good. She's worth millions from the vampire books

Perhaps she has half her brain tied behind her back... leaving her totally incapacitated!

Ellen Degeneres was born in NO, she grew up in NO, and her entire family lost everything there. So please get your facts right before you make accusations like that.

"I’d appreciate a little less “you failed us” and a little more “we’ve learned our lesson.” "

Excellent post!!! I'd like to add: Mizz Rice, how about simply saying "thank you"? Then maybe you can tell us all, Ms. Rice, why NOLA deserves more attention than Biloxi or Mobile or any of the other places destroyed by Katrina.

News flash: Race-baiting jumps the shark!

Finally, after all these years, the rabid race-hysteria being retailed by the far Left, the Democrats, and the press over the Katrina aftermath is starting to de-sensitize the rest of us ordinary people.

You no longer have to feel secretly guilty and embarrassed whenever someone asks you if you don't like them because they're black.

Just say: SURE! And I'll bet you think George Bush forced black people to eat corpses to survive!

Anne Rice writes vampire novels. What more do you need to know about this freak?

That she also writes plotless BDSM novels full of spankings, whippings, and butt plugs?

Her erotic novel, Belinda, feasts on a sexual relationship between a 44-year old illustrator of children's books and his foster daughter, a 16 year old girl

She's not his foster daughter, she's just a teen with a crush who picks him up at a book signing. I read it years ago. It kept my attention, but so did Stephen King, when I was that age.

Fellow Freepers:

At the suggestion of writer Michelle Malkin last Friday, I have cobbled together a blogsite called Texas Clearinghouse for Katrina Aid to serve as a clearinghouse for refugee efforts in Texas.

Texas is getting more refugees than any other state -- that's fine, we'll take them all -- but we need help providing them with food, clothing, and shelter.

If you are a refugee, you can information that will help you find relief. If you want to donate or volunteer, you can find someone who needs you.

Right now the site mostly covers Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas but I will add various churches, schools, and other charities in Lubbock and Austin tonight. My wife was down at Reunion Arena in Dallas yesterday handing out care packages and spiritually ministering to the refugees as a representative of her employer. She says that the situation is tragic and that there's a lot of work to be done. There are so many children who don't know where their parents are or even if their parents are still alive.

There are a lot of churches and other organizations in Texas that need help in dealing with the problem and I would appreciate it if you would get the word out.

Many thanks,

Michael McCullough

Stingray blogsite

Anne Rice has another plot hook for her next novel.

Note to Ms. Rice: The folks in the other 49 didn't elect those incompetents, sweetie. Don't blame us.
