dodging bullets

Holy Frickin Crap.... at about 3 or 4 am Monday night a tornado formed around westwego here in New Orleans, crossed the river and went to work on Carrollton. It missed our house by a little over a block and a half as it ripped through trees and houses like buttah... I now realize I can can sleep through anything... We were also lucky that we were fortunate enough to not lose power... I've been thinking about the whole thing after a day to digest, this city is still full of FEMA trailers, over 50 were destroyed by this storm... and we all know that tornados are natually drawn to trailer parks. Not saying thats what caused it, just an observasion... Anyway, our hearts go out to all those people who lost everything in Katrina, and are now all the way back to square 1...
