And we're back.
Man, there's nothing like letting your diet go during a natural disaster. Well, not that I was on anything but a beer and smothered pork chop diet anyways.
But damn, it's nice to say, "Well, the cement roof might cave in or get sucked out at any second, so f**k it, I'll go ahead and have that third rice krispie treat."
Seriously though, my partner in crime mooned the hurricane for me to take a photo for said blog. (Soon to come.) He recieved a piece of debris in his rear for his effort.
However, a reuters photographer, Mark the man, who hunkered down with us last night, was also standing there and snapped a lovely front angle. The photo is now on the photo wires, for those of you with access. Also, if you do have access to the wires, we don't, please send it our way.
I, however, got a crack-side angle. So for those of you with the faint of heart, you may want to turn away from my next posting.
Now we're waiting for the wind and flying sheet-metal and live electrical wires to disipate (sp?) a bit. I'll probably head out into the storm around 4:30ish central time on my bicycle. Yes, I will wear my waders.

Mike Keller, a resident of Biloxi, Mississippi, stands in the rain while mooning Hurricane Katrina just after dawn August 29, 2005. Katrina slammed into the Louisiana coast on Monday with 140 mile per hour winds as the powerful storm came ashore from the Gulf of Mexico and took aim at low-lying New Orleans. The coast, much of it lightly populated swamps, was being pounded with high winds and heavy rains while New Orleans, 55 miles northeast, braced for the worst of Katrina.

And I suppose this is going to be your excuse for missing our Fantasy Football draft, Josh!

I guess you'll be pulling a Milli Vanilli and "blame it on the rain" when your injured/on-and-off incarcerated backfield and aging QB (not to knock Favre, but he's no stud when it comes to Fantasy numbers) sends the Mississippi Mud plummeting to the bottom of the West division of the Columbia Ballers league.

Plug THAT, major cable news networks!
