  1. I would imagine Grand Isle looks like the Bolivar peninsula after Ike.
  2. About 9pm. He's ok. No word on damage. Not sure how he is going to deal with the situation. Can't stay and can't leave just yet. Frustrating.
  3. Concur. The light of day will reveal mother nature's new and devilishly clever work around.
  4. Clearly, it has been a long day. For some us more than others.
  5. Louis did more than work for them. He considered them his family and wore a Star on David for the rest of his life after leaving nola. He wore a necklace. No flair.
  6. I've been here since 2011 (Surly/Shaggy). I know what I am dealing with. I think it would be in everyone's best I best that I stuck around and threw a little cold water on the over the top Doom and gloom nonsense where my local knowledge permits. Ragged edge..pffft.
  7. Greetings and Jackson for cross streets.
  8. My son lives in Central City area close to St Charles. They had 2' of water for Katrina. They are not getting 10' or 9' anything close to that. God you guys are assholes.
  9. Everything is not going to be under 10 feet of water. Get real. This situation is bad enough without your completely unnecessary exaggerations.
  10. Shut up. Some of us have loved ones there and don't need any of your Debi downer bullshit.
  11. Had to look twice to make sure that wasn't my oldest. He's a pro trumpet player. He has been a bit frazzled over the last year and a half. Thought for a second or two, he might have gone down to the quarter and expressed himself. Not him. He is hunkered down.
  12. Sorry for partying. You guys are slipping.
  13. Oldest son lives a few blocks north of St. Charles cross Street at Jackson. He decided to stay. According to maps and locals they got about 2-3' of water for Katrina. More concerned about level of preparedness. Not sure he is ready for 3 weeks without power.
  14. The curve is kind of sort of flattening if you look at it just right and hold your phone sideways. That's all I got.
  15. Went there on Monday nights back in 91 and 92. Good specials and Ed Gerlach's big band would play. Damn I would get drunk. CPA work was no fun the next day.
  16. But did second patient cure his Covid?
  17. New screwball reporting. Not sure why they can't do it everyday. Some other states do the same. Go figure.
  18. I'll also ask again, what is going on with Florida's death from Covid numbers? They are churning out in excess of 20,000 new cases/day and their death rate has plummeted from a high of 170/day two weeks ago to a 7 day MA <20/day with nothing over 10 this week. Their death rate is at lowest since the pandemic started and their case number are still at all time highs. Worldometer. From the Herald, but that just does not seem to explain the sudden change. Seems like FLorida bullshit to me: On Aug. 10, the CDC changed the way it reported new cases and deaths in Florida. Cases and deaths used to be logged as total new cases reported on a single day. Now, Florida is reporting cases by the “case date,” according to the CDC rather than the date the case was logged into the system. The result of this change is a lag in cases by date and a significant number of cases backfilling over time. The Herald will continue to report numbers based on the difference in total cases from one day to the next, as this is consistent with the way data have been presented in daily stories since the beginning of the pandemic. The Herald will report deaths the same way, after pulling the raw data from the CDC website. As a result, the “new cases” and “new deaths” listed on the CDC site for any given day may be different than numbers published by the Herald for the same day. According to a statement from CDC spokesperson Jasmine Reed on Aug. 18: “Florida’s aggregate case and death data includes case date for cases and date of death for deaths. The method applies to data shared by Florida and to data displayed on COVID Data Tracker. Other States also use this reporting method and states can vary in the reporting method. For example, data as of the date that states submit may be the date that a state received its data from its reporting entities, or it might be another dating method that the state prefers.” DOH spokesperson Weesam Khoury said Florida’s new reporting system “will ensure that continuous epidemiological analyses provide the most updated data to the public.” Neither agency provided further explanation of how a “case date” is assigned to each new case.
  19. We don't even get the Darwin bump since he has already successfully procreated.
  20. My Climbing gym had the scanner at the front. I never once even registered above 97.5, but then again I never had Covid either. It was not a cheap scanner either. I think they just set it for "open for business". Back then they were were pretty strict with 100% mask mandate and limited by appointment only 2 hour time slots.
  21. His stuff was really funny. His yoga stuff looks like it comes from years of experience. I always just figured he was poking fun at himself with some overthetopness. Then, it got weird.
