I am here in the gulf coast region recovering from Hurricane Katrina. Today my electricity has finally come back on and I have returned to work. Its total death and destruction in the region and thousands of homes have been destroyed. I been using my spare time to purchase donations for the make-shift shelters and volunteering. Many Americans throughout the country have left their families behind to come here to help and for that I am completely greatful. Your sacrifices go beyond any measures. They set up a make-shift clinic at the airport and the word is they are dieing at an average of ten per day. A special thanks to Peyton and Eli Manning, Marshall Faulk, and other NFL athletes, who would normally be taking the time getting prepared for the season, leaving their camps to do everything they can to help the victims because you realized what was more important. Sorry being off topic but I needed the release and tonight I can go back to sleeping in my bed. But many victims are still suffering and most will never be able to recover. So readers your prayers and well wishes would be greatly appreciated. Finally congrats Marvo ALL THE BEST Haven’t really had a chance to discover that the posts were slacking.
