My FIL, DH, and Bro-in-law have all taught gun and hunter safety classes up here for the past 30 years, so I've had it pretty well drilled into me, living with them all these years. And yes, I had the same problem with that pic as others did.
You don't point guns at other people unless you are prepared to kill them, and even if it was a trick of the camera and they weren't pointed that way you couldn't tell from the photo.

You must be about the dumbest brick in the stack. Do you know Eaker? I do and there was never an element of danger in any of those pics.

"1. She wants President Bush to "change the rules" so that the complete salaries of police and firemen will be paid by the federal government. She says the parishes are not getting any income so they have run out of money."
Well if the federal government has to pay for everything then why do we do the next best thing and federalize NO and move Washington DC right down there.

you are riding this thing out in Port Arthur? that's ground zero for this thing if the current track holds.
To: Eaker
Wow, with THAT kinda firepower you could have kept all the NO looters (including the police) in line!

You are missing all the fun!! Look what our "distinguished" Governor just said.....
Blanco is giving a news conference. She said, "I've asked Rita" Instead of "I've asked FEMA"!
Now she is consulting the hurricane!
To: eastforker
local 2 showing two naval ships loaded with area emergency vehicles sheltering out the storm so they will be available once the storm passes, great planing.Yes, I also noted that. I'm thinking that once the brunt of this storm passes, we'll find the military much more prepared to render really effective aid. Not that I think they did poorly in Katrina, but that they are "fast learners" and will not make the same mistakes twice. I am quite encouraged by both this and the deployment of the Iwo Jima and her sisters.

Very relieved to hear your family and your property are safe. I understand what you are saying about the stress of hurricane season. Have had some serious thoughts about selling out too. Only thing is that I don't know where I would rather live than here. Still thinking about it. Definitely getting too worn out with the storms.
Welcome back!

Dan Rather got his start with a hurricane in Texas. Maybe he wants to go full circle. Accidental pun? Nice one in any event.

To: Miss Marple
Get this: she is asking for all sorts of money, including complete pay for police and fire from the Feds, instead of just overtime.How in the world can she justify that request? Is she a complete idiot? I've known all along that she was an incompetent stooge but this is beyond that. I hope General Honore or Admiral Allen tell her she's stuck on stupid and to shut up!

Fox just said President Bush is going to the command center in Colorado instead of going to Texas. See! He can't decide what to do or where to go!
