Aug. 28th, 2005 01:10 pmWhy I'm glad I don't live in the South, and I am hoping New Orleans survives for me to visit
I'm sure it's a lovely place, but when you face threats like this every few years, every year if you live in Florida, why fucking bother? At my last job, I got so many people who, while calling in for cell phone minutes, told me how devastating it was to rebuild after one hurricane only to have another one completely decimate everything they owned. I mean, the Northwest has its own share of crazy stubborn bastards in the face of impending disaster, but there has to be some sort of collective madness in the South to voluntarily relocate to places where things like this happen on a regular basis.
Oh jebus. Tornadoes INSIDE the hurricane? Sometimes, I wonder if this is mother nature passive-aggressively lashing out at what people are doing to the environment. God help those poor people.
