Katrina sweeps the south, thousands feared dead.
Thousands. Can you believe that? I've known all week that it was a serious disaster, but I had no idea that it would claim that many lives. I can't imagine something like that happening here...everything I know just washing away in a manner of hours.
People are trapped in their homes. People have been crammed in the Superdome for days. How ironic that I often complain about spending too much time at home...
Gas prices take a sharp rise through the U.S., millions feared pissed.
Perhaps someone can explain this to me. Why would a natural disaster make gas prices go up? Here's my logic: thousands of people have lost their driving privilege, and the supply for gas has thus gone up. Higher supply = lower price. What am I missing here?
I find it funny that on practically every corner there is at least one station that has gas at $3.15, and yet they are getting just as much business as the stations that are selling at $2.99. Are people really that lazy?
Iraqi suicide bomber triggers stampede, almost 900 killed.
They say that most of those dead are women and children. I'm curious to know how many U.S. soldiers were killed in this tragedy, but I'm willing to bet that it's close to none. It's events like these that show how truly misguided these people are. You "save" your people by killing them? Well done.
Now if you would excuse me, I have some praying to do.
Edit: Can someone go on a diet and work at Hungry Howies at the same time? I think not.
I feel like a drug addict. Not that I know what that feels like, but the withdrawl is definetly there. To be around pizza for 6-8 hours and not be able to have even once slice...that's just not right.
That's all I have to say, really. I figured talking about it would make me feel better. Didn't work, but at least I tried... |
