Commence with the varnishingeditCat hair all over my nicely varnished counter. Avast, ye fuzzy scoundrels! Wait till I get my painty hands on you... you'll spend the next hurricane out in the echo shed. |
Katrina evacuee blueseditLots of evacuees entering Houston. How can one help evacuees without integrating them wholly into a city? Is it worth trying? Why not settle them in places and quantities where they can be integrated, rather than spending money on temporary accomodations which assume they will return to a devastated home? Most say they want to stay in Houston - 2/3 of those here. Yet all preparations for lodging (in hotels and temp apartments) and jobs (temp work, again) assume they will leave in a month or two. Is this not wasteful? Do the relocation teams ask whether people intend to go back? I would love to know. |
