I know I'm not anywhere near the coast, so I'm not sure what they are experiencing. All I know is that a lot of people had been flooded, and drowned, anda lot of people refused to evacuate or something like that. I want to help, but I don't really know the organizations that will use the money to actually help them, down there. Gas prices caused by the storm are rediculous though >.<
And to those who know Chibi Sesshoumaru, The people at Simple and Clean Hikari have received word from her, and she is safe. She's somewhere in Memphis, and she says there is a possibility of her returning home tomorrow, though it is unsure of when she can get back online, let alone her computer's problems with Proboards. All I know other than that, is that she lived somewhere in Louisiana, if you don't know what I'm talking about.

I have several friends in Louisiana as well, though thankfully, they are all okay.
As for drives, I'm surprised your school isn't running one. But you may want to check out redcross.org, as I'm sure they'll have some sort of donation information, I'm sure.

Friggin' looters make me sick to my stomach. I understand the people who are looting to survive, but c'mon. What about those people randomly jacking teevees and stuff? WHERE YOU GONNA' PLUG IN THAT WIDESCREEN, EH, BITCH?

The Only thing I'd loot is a PDA., or a laptop, and some battaries, but that's it. The rest would be food and bottled water. BUT IT"S NOT A REASON TO SHOOT AT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ATTEMPTING TO RESCUE YOU!!!
>.< I can understand a certain bit of greed, but to sacrifice the saftey of yourself, as well as those around you........... It makes me want to rant, though I'm not mad enough..........And besides. There's nothing I can do up here in michigan to really stop all of this pointless violence for stealing things that wouldn't work anyway......

I would, too. Fools like that aren't worth it, when you could be spending your time rescuing people who appreciate it.
