Has the world gone mad? I read news from not only our local area but the BIG networks like CNN, FOX MSNBC and somehow it is all twisted. For instance... a local woman gave birth to a stillborn baby and she was charged with manslaughter because cocaine was found in her system. Yet each day all over the world babies are aborted and the abortionist nor their patient is accused of murder ... that's twisted. I followed the story of the woman who killed her minister husband with several shotgun blasts and she was set free ... that's twisted. I sense the despair in our young people who have no role models. The suicide rate around the country should alert us to take action and do a "turn-a-round".

In our local areas, so much time seems to be wasted. I can understand the high ideals of each city but can't understand the slow approach to bring us back to a more normal way of life. Downtown Pascagoula has a beautiful new locally owned bank, a very nice city library and a new post office is under construction but the condition of the city streets detracts from the beauty. It's sort of like a birthday cake that is not garnished with "rosettes". Street Repairs

How about "sneaky" Humberto? I have often remarked in my blogs that Katrina didn't fit the description of a normal hurricane but, I have to hand it to her, she didn't sneak in.... she knew exactly where she was going! Humberto

At this writing, the skies are overcast with distant thunder. It is predicted that Humberto will bring drenching rain to the central part of Mississippi. Somehow I am not satisfied that the coast is safe now that hurricanes can "sneak" !
