I got the news today. They are rotating in for 8 days at a time. Yippee! I finally get to do something worthwhile! I'll be leaving a week from Saturday for my rotation (gotta get lots of shots first).

I'm a pharmacy tech.

20. Good for you! My brother

who is a cop and a repug got sent to Biloxi about a week ago. I wonder what he's thinking now.
Medical is good! Everything and anything is good.

[Liberal Veteran]

8. The shots? DPT, Tetanus, maybe Hep A.

They even suggested we bring along our own personal supply of a broad sprectrum antibiotic and anti-diarrheal.

14. Wow, take care and thanks for going.

[Lifelong Protester]

5. any chance you will be able to stay in communication with us?

So we can get some on the ground truth from you?

[Liberal Veteran]

11. I hope so, but I really won't know until I get there.

But I will keep a journal (not like I'll be enjoying the nightlife).

[Media_Lies_Daily]

6. Good deal! Give us a description of what you find when you return!

[rwheeler31]

7. Great to do some good

please try to get the word out, and thank you.

[Cleita]

9. Take lot's pictures and write a journal of everything you see

in between moments. It may be important in the future. I wish you the best.

10. Make sure they send you to NO, Louisiana & not Orleans, NY

Today FEMA flew some Nola evacuees to Charleston WV by mistake instead of Charleston SC, so it would be good to check first.

[Hissyspit]

12. Godspeed.

[kbm8795]

13. Definitely get lots of notes and pics

if you can. . .and bless you for helping!

[Liberal Veteran]

16. Yeah, they told us to bring our cell phones and digital cameras.

I may not be out and about much, though. It's gonna be a lot of work, but well worth the effort we'll be making.

[Redstone]

15. Good for you, and good luck to you.

that Big Wheel of Karma is carrying you to the top right now. Do well.

17. Here LV, these are the flyers you'll be handing out.

Don't forget to smile.

Now, can I hear you say, "God bless George W. "Two-terms mandate" Bush?"

That's nice, you might want to put more oomph in the "two-terms mandate" part. Ahh! That's better. You'll be great.

[tx_dem41]

18. That's wonderful! I'm jealous of you having that opportunity.

NOLA is my hometown. I applaud you for going down there.
THANK YOU!
