The one with wheels on it. This is a disaster! The can is just lying there. Quick, someone send a Rescue worker out there and put it back upright before the Sanitation Department misses it during Wednesdays pickup.

8. As much as the coverage might be funny, they're not out of the woods yet.

A lot can happen in the next 24 hours. Flooding and levee breaches are still a big concern. Plus, there could be widespread tornado damage.

Watch the NOLA stations at http://www.maroonspoon.com/wx/gustav.html instead of the cable crap.

12. The GOP knew there was a major risk for this exact type of devastation

and that is why they all but canceled their convention, so their delegates could be there to upright the can before garbage pickup on Wednesday.

14. Have you ever NOT been a hateful freak?

[Lint Head]

15. Wow. The CNN just reported that if water comes over the levee

there will be a flood. Does that mean water is wet? One reporter asked, "What's the difference between topping a breach of the levee?" It's like they are giving school lessons to 3 year olds the way some reporters talk to a viewer. :dem:

16. What do you expect they are no longer reporting about a hurricane

It's more like a tropical annoyance
it should be raided arrested and detained for several hours.

[TankLV]

17. It's like they are giving school lessons to 3 year olds...

they are EXACTLY that...!!!

oh, and they are not "reporters" - they are "repeaters" - repeating and reading what they are GIVEN without any other effort on their own part...
