    Can't Get Home...

    Well, I got to speak with another buddy who is in Hattiesburg, MS. He said that all of the area is without power, and water. I asked how he is talking to me on the phone, and he said he charges his phone in his car, but us runninng out of gas. Gas is the biggest problem to getting into the area. There isn't a gas station open anywhere, and when it does get open the lines are a mile long (literally), and they run out within the day.

    So, I've been plotting how I could home and get in there to bring some MRE's and water, and assess my own damage, but it looks like it will be feeble to try and get in, because I may not be able to get out.

    I keep getting emails and phone calls from friends and family, and some are still unaccounted for. It is a disaster- undoubtedly the worst natural disaster to hit the US.
