Hey Lyin...hope you folks are doing well...I totally agree that whoever is carrying around guns and shooting at emergency personell should be shot on site period. If they are looting ANYTHING other than food or water the should be shot on site period. There is little room for evil people right now and taking them out of the equation should be top priority.

Hey Andi I am going to the store right now and putting together a care package. If you can call Nina and see if she can pick it up after work or someone can come and get it tomorrow that would be great. I have plans this evening otherwise I would deliver it myself.

Looks like our college district may help out too. Apparently 4 of the 5 campuses for the community college system are completely destroyed. We are in negotiations now to open online courses so their students don't have a totally gutted semester.

the united methodist church sends these buckets to places that suffer loss, and will no doubt be sending them to la, ms and other places in need.

it's a simple project that you can do, or a group can do, to help make a difference.. .

You know I was just thinking....if they caught people looting they should put some dye, bright orange right on the forehead!, on them that won't come off for a couple weeks...then they would be marked as theives and could be dealt with later or be castigated by the community at least..

Searching for Jesus' fingerWednesday, 2:10 p.m.

In the garden behind St. Louis Cathedral on Royal Street lies an
incredible tangle of zig-zagging broken tree trunks and branches, mixed with
smashed wrought iron fences.

But right in the middle, a statue of Jesus is still standing, unscathed by the storm, save for the left thumb and index finger, which are missing.

The missing digits immediately set off speculation of divine intervention.

New Orleans has a long history praying to saints for guidance and protection in times of great peril. In fact it was Our Lady of Prompt Succor who was said to be responsible for saving the Ursulines Convent in the French Quarter from a raging fire that consumed the rest of the city centuries ago.

Since then, New Orlenians have prayed to the saint for protection from natural disasters. On Saturday, Archbishop Alfred Hughes read a prayer over the radio asking for Our Lady's intervention to spare the city a direct hit by Hurricane Katrina.

Many in the Quarter are now saying it was the hand of Jesus, the missing digits to be precise, that flicked the hurricane east just a little to keep the city from suffering a direct blow.

And the search is one for those missing fingers.

Shortly after Katrina passed, several men went to Robert Buras, who owns the Royal Street Grocery and told him they know who has the finger. Buras said he'd give them all the water and beer they need if they bring him the finger.

They told him they'd find it and asked to be paid upfront. But Buras told them he wouldn't take it on credit

"I'm going to find Jesus' finger,'' Buras said. ''I've got a lead on it.''
