These hurricanes really suck I went through three of them last year didnt lose anything but trees but its a pain just to get your life back together and lose power for a week get it back for a week and then lose it for another week. The Gas issue is a hole other problem they are saying we may be out of gas by next week down here alot of the stations are already out. The school buses are even going to be shut down. Good luck with your recovery and I hope you dont get anymore this year.

It will be many years b4 I can ever even think about a rec car again! I have heard it’s so bad down there I may never return. Just cash in the insurance. Pay the Bills and start over somewhere else. What you guys are seeing on the news is propaganda BS!. It’s like a 3rd world county war in the City right now. Armed mobs of looters rapin and killin at will. Dead bodies floating everywhere. The cops where left to fend for themselves with NO leadership or communication. The federal government finally got involved today and they are brining in troops. My cousin is a NOPD Cop and that’s where I am getting the info from. Anyway - that’s enough of my rant. Thanks again for the help in the past guys. Lata, Arkangel77

I feel ya man, we went through the same thing here in Pensacola Fl. when Ivan came through. Katrina was pretty bad at my house to but nothing like what you all got. And of course we didnt have the hole criminal aspect durring Ivan like you do. If your over this way shoot me an email and give me a heads up and maybe I can help out some. Things will get better, but I can say it will never be the same. But sometimes change is a good thing. And as it was for me hopefully it will be for you to. Take care man

Hey guys thanks for all the prayers and well wishes. Like manny of you have said, my family is safe and that is the most important thing for sure. I have an uncle who has bin threw nom and other total devistation storms like this in his life. He said the first month is the hardest. We are just takin one day at a time?
AS for what is really goiong on down there. I heard from a cousin who is still down there. He is a fireman is St bernard, they went to try and do some search and rescue in some of the low income areas and the folks they were trying to save were shooting at them as they went into the area! Someone said times like this bring out the best and worst in people! There are a LOT of bad people left in the Greater New Orleans area! The looters are actualy braking into the hotels where the cops were staying and hunting/shooting them as they tried to get some sleep. Its like a frekin WAR down there. They need to go threw and EXTERMINATE the animals that are there killing law inforcement and rescue people! Man I am sorry BUT its just getting worse and worse down there. Every story I hear from guys still down there is worse and worse. Its just upsetting me. Lata guys, Ark

Hi Archangel
I feel for you, my parents, and a lot of family members live in Gretna, Harvey, and Belle Chasse.
They all got out early, and everyone is safe, but they will lose everything by the time it's all over with.
I don't even know what to say to anyone, except to hang in there, it will get better
Ed

Except for PurEvl... we all know he's a pretty boy, but anyway... wish you the best man. God bless.
PS. When you do get a hold of your car be sure to dump the water out of the STS piping, I hear those things like to suck it up more than Zombie.
I'll leave you with a smile.
Cya man

Thanks for the support guys.
The cops are startin to shoot them and they are definatly defending themselves!
AS for why its not on the news - They are trying to cover up how bad it is. Not sure why. Guss they dont want people to know how bad it is?
Ed - thanks bro and wish your family well for me. We are all in the same Boat. Lata Guys, Ark

I'm so sorry to hear about what has happen to you, your family, and all the other good people down there...
As far as the other POS's that are pulling all the BS, they should just lock the gates and let natural selection take place... the stupid ***** will kill themselves off.

man I just heard from my cousin who is still down there. The idiots that are still down there are looting more and more. as the water goes down they are getting into houses and destroying everything! They walked accross one of the major bridges into another part of town where they looted a Big Mall and then burnt it to the ground. This was one of the areas that had not taken a lot of water! I am starting to think there will be NOTHUNG left once its all done. Whatever katrina did not destroy the low life scum of the erth will finish off. They need to start exterminating the animals that are left down there and doing this crap. I am sorry guys BUT I am just so discusted!
Thanks for the prayer and well wishes, Lata, Ark
