I think that a gator had him for a snack.

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, medicine, and shelter. We need help taking care of their pets, too.
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. Believe me, there are a lot of organizations who need your help.
Right now the site mostly covers Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas but I'm adding more every night. My wife was down at Reunion Arena in Dallas Tuesday 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,

Yessir.......I forgot that in some places, the dead and dogs vote so why not a tree? "I think that I shall never see, an old oak tree that votes for me, tis a beauty to behold indeed, when that old oak votes for fraud and greed. May the live oak forever reign for those of us who seek all gain, and everyone whose heart is true, don't bother with grief and rue.......it's Louisiana's tradition on voting day, that live oaks vote, come what may." (Fill in your favorite (?) Louisiana politician.....I go for da Kingfish. *~*
We are meat eaters with a passion! We love anything on the hoof.....cept' lamb.....can't abide that lamb, no, uh-uh and gotta throw goat in there too.....heck! No wonder those terrorists have an attitude......they just need a beeg ol' rare steak (poisoned of course). *~*
Live oaks are relatively weak---for the Oak family at least. Live Oaks and Red Oaks grow faster and have a faster capillary take-up than Post and Blackjack and other White oaks. Live Oaks are common here in Dry Central Tex, but I'm always thinking Pecan and big-old white oaks in NOLA.....but I didn't sleep in a Holiday Inn Express last night, so I could be very wrong.
That said, I would think the white oaks would be more resilient longer, but I don't know that either. (And no, I'm not making a play on white/black oaks.)
Ewwww.......pineapple? I'll eat pork with something kinda fruity, but beef, nuttin' but. I take that back......prime rib with beranaise......(I'm drooling).....LOL.
Toothpicks
Blackjacks eat chainsaw blades.
LOL!
Blanco hasn't signed the order letting FEMA rush aid to the trees.
"The White Oaks were all evacuated."
The Winner!
I win I win I win!
I'd lie to thank my parents, my family, my producer, my agent, the American people. Last but certainly not least, I'd like to thank my lovely wife Freeper Laura Earl for all her support and love.
What do I get?
