The Week that Was

Well, what can one say? The hurricane catastrophe doesn't seem to be getting any better. I don't really want to re-hash what other people are saying better than I could, so I'll leave you with couple of links to get the feel of what the smart people are saying. Plus, some of these writers (bloggers, reporters) can show you how and where to donate money, time and goods.

Oh, I can't let this go...FEMA has a list of charities to dontate to on their main page.
The 3rd charity? Operation Blessing. Heard of it? You may have heard of the founder.
He recently called for the assassination of an elected head of state. Yep, none other than Pat Roberton is #3 on the FEMA list of charities.

What a country!!!!
(****UPDATE-9/7/05-The Pat Robertson charity has mysteriously disappeared from the FEMA website without any explanation, hmmmm, but it is still on the Spanish version of the page)


Another question that popped into my head...Where's VP Cheney? Has anyone seen him?
Is he healthy (for him)?
Condi had to cut her vacation short when she was spotted in NYC taking in Broadway shows and buying $500 pairs of shoes this week. (Conservative? Yes! Compassionate? Not so much.)

Oh, on a personal note. I got laid off this week. Now it's certainly not the end of the world for Mr. and Mrs. NotJoey, but it does shake things up a little.
I'll still be employed for the next 6 weeks, but after that, a new adventure begins.

Stay tuned.
