[BrielleBug]

we were without power for 2 days . katrina destroyed a bunch of stuff. my parents were insane to stay for the hurricane. at one point we all walked out in the middle of it. it was pretty cool but devastating

REAL FACES Georgian troops in Tskhinvali in 8 Aug

watch?v=Qe_-ubW98m0

YAHOOOOOOOOOoooo

Did CNN & BBC show it????

[MammaNurse]

What does it take for you people? Bloated bodies floating by? Images of human suffering in it's worst form? Yes, this was a storm and the videos that are on this site may help that one evacuee out there that is desperate to catch one small glimpse of their area.

[jonirose3]

well you watched it, did you not? my family is searching desperately for news as to whether or not they have a home to go back to. scouring youtube for that kind of info is no treat, let me tell you. dont be so judgemental. people do what they have to.

[CrazyCrackerguy]

woah

[ChaosofEternity]

bring it on gustav. north vermilion parish is waiting for you.

[MrVisions]

A desperate act, by a legion of cameramen with one exception, the hurricane. Well look at the bright side at least the oil tycoons walked away smiling hurricane or no hurricane the spoof shot the price of oil up again.

[angelemd]

Gustav you can't stop HOUMA!!!

[xotanisox]

oh my...

[dingoprairie]

This is "lashing" at the center of the "fierce" hurricane :/ It's must be bad for Fox Noise reporters that have to stand in the wet rain. Oh well billions spent and 2 million people evacuated for nothing. Good thing that money was spent during Katrina.

[lumajs]

I completely agree. It's raining somewhere, with some wind, and 50,000 journalists according to Google News (hurricane-Gustav) are declaring the end of the world, with the GOP nearly joining them. I've been in such rains, too. It's usually unpleasant and whenever the umbrella breaks, it sucks! ;-) But moving millions of people?

[MammaNurse]

I was born and raised in Houma and I know for a fact that there are lots of people trying to clean up after what you sarcastically referred to as "the lashing". Houma took winds of over 90 with much stronger gusts and there is widespread damage. I am extremely thankful that my family is safe and alive. This storm may not have provided the video you craved with mass destruction, but don't ya think maybe the news people were still risking their lives to bring it to you??

[EmirrrBiznitch]

Wow.

[77bredy77]

i hope this hurricane will go away asap!
