It's September Already!

Summer vacation is over for the kids. They're ensconced in school now and I too feel like I'm back in grade school with them. Last night it was "I need information about Indians." "Quick I need a map." And my least favorite...."my lunch was yucky."

I just got word that many of my co-workers in LA, AL & MS have lost everything. It saddens me particularly when these same people are often asked to provide the technical information for disaster preparedness and relief. Funny mother nature doesn't discriminate! My thoughts and prayers are with all the people in the gulf coast. I'm sick of the finger pointing. From the radio talking heads to the politicians in DC saying it's the presidents fault!!! Nonsense.

Why weren't the 1K LA school buses used to move people out sooner? What til they find out who is getting these debit cards. Just imagine when recipients go to get cash and fine the $$ has been taken to pay back taxes or fines!! Shockeroo it will be. I'm sure like here after Hurricane Isabel there will be people using cards who weren't entitled to getting them. Did I hear about "wealthy" people not getting the cards???? Why discriminate against those who work and pay taxes???

I'll pop if I sit and type more. I guess I had better do a bit more daily posting.
