Country: | Thanks eric
I agree it is still possible for your mate to turn up Les, it appears that thousands of folks have been displaced and he may have other more pressing tasks to perform Did you know any of his relitives perhaps giving them a bell may help to locate him or is there a lost and found web site to chase ? but even then he could be busy and out of touch. It sure looks like you guys will have work coming out of your ears for a long time to come and we all feel like tits in a trance being so far away.

Country: | Correct Me 262, that big turd is coming your way just like Katrina did toward Les. I've got a good freind in Corpus Christie and I told him to get up north and east past two to three states for about 14 days until it passes. Just heard that some clowns are saying that Galveston will be wiped off the face of the earth....man what are people saying, spreading the potential chaos....
Hang in there Les maybe your friends will get back safely as everything is still so mucked up. what's the latest on the rebuilding and cleanup in your area ? Just got back from several days in the Oregon Mtns via work...

Country: | Why take a chance? This one is bigger than Katrina. You need to scoot out of there.
