Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses. Not to New York City as it was written but to Houston, Texas and the Eighth Wonder of the World, the Houston Astrodome.The busses started arriving in the wee hours of the morning.The poorest of the poor from New Orleans are now arriving at the dome. Other refugees have already been arriving and are in various shelters and in some cases hospitals. This will require a LOT of patience on the part of everyone. Earlier this am we had breaking news about shots fired at choppers trying to ferry people to the buses. Security is a problem for everyone. We here in Houston welcome all and hope we can help. Houston is a very generous city and we all will do what we can to help. A side note, Jerry Lewis has announced that his MD Telethon will raise money for hurricane relief instead of MD. We all need to do what we can to reach out to all those suffering. I know Houston is.

You should check out the other traffic exchange I use frequently, they are actually donating part of every account upgrade etc to the red cross fund.
I think it's a great idea and makes me want to use their service more.

I am touched by the hands reaching out to help. I am trying to focus on those hands rather than the ones who condemn 10,000 miles southern coastand to death because of reasons like: "God's wrath for Mardi Gras". Our hands can bruise, our hands can kill...but what a joy it is when our hands heal. Thank you to all the healing, soothing, loving helping hands...
