Theproblem is that the local, state and federal politicians are not keeping the people informed about their options for going home. All that you ever hear is that certain neighborhoods will not be rebuilt or perhaps rebuilding N.O. is a waste of taxpayers dollars and other negatives. Never do you hear a local, state or federal politician say that we will hold the Army Corp of Engineers responsible for this destruction and then we will build storm protection equivalent to that of the protection in the Netherlands, so that everyone can come home. When was the last time the Netherlands flooded? This would give the people hope. When aperson knows that his dreams will be realized, he has the strength to wait for that event to come to pass. christiansdo it everyday as they wait upon their JESUS to return.joceehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120898732371989154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19557970.post-53581396413230052402007-08-07T20:06:00.000-05:002007-08-07T20:06:00.000-05:00this may seem like a dumb question, but I was in y...this may seem like a dumb question, but I was in your area this past week at the children's hospital with my son seeing a orthopedic surgeon, anyway I was wondering if you can help identify what occupies the city block directly across the street from the entrance to the hospital. From goggle earth it looks like one of the buildings has a >-I-< shape? A friend of mine who used to live in new Orleans east until Katrina thinks it may have been an asylum at one time. <BR/><BR/>anthonyLSU suckshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00099826028069173810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19557970.post-16728234772431288502007-07-26T15:02:00.000-05:002007-07-26T15:02:00.000-05:00Hey Tim --I'm writing a screenplay that takes plac...Hey Tim --<BR/><BR/>I'm writing a screenplay that takes place in New Orleans.
