Man, Katrina really fucked up the coast. Its like the story of the little storm that could. Everybody thought it was going to park over Florida and rain for a few days, but it bounced off the state and turned into what will probably be the worst hurricane in history. Its like a nuclear bomb went off along the gulf coast. New Orleans is going to be a ghost town for months. Its just kinda freaky to think about that many people losing their homes overnight. Yesterday I noticed a guy at the grocery store with his kids. They got out of a car with Louisiana license plates. The guy had a "what the fuck am I supposed to do now?" look on his face. Later I saw them in the store again and the man was trying to get money wired to him. It was a sad, humbling moment. Just last week I was upset because some shit wasn't going the way I wanted it to. Now I feel like a jack-ass for even bitching. New Orleans has literally been turned into a pool of floating bodies and I had the nerve to feel sorry for myself over such trivial shit as having to buy a fuel pump for my car. I'm such a piece of shit sometimes. Anyway, I've been on the phone with all my friends who play in bands today. We are going to try and get together a bennefit concert next week or something. If anybody has any ideas about things we could do let me know. Until then....
