Miracles, Louisiana and Zack P.

Nearly 2 weeks freshman Auburn football player had resigned to the fact that his 6- and 8-year old brothers has drowned in NOLA and his father was missing. In fact, he was contacted and told explicitly that his little brothers perished when the sought shelter in a school gymnasium that ended up flooding.

Then he gets the news that they were just missing and landed in Houston. Man, talk about about miracles.

How about LSU and the Saints winning in incredible circumstances last weekend? LSU scores a 39-yard touchdown on 4th and 10 with 1:21 in the game and the Saints kick a field goal with 3 seconds on the clock to win. Crazy.

Are we really gonna let them rebuild NOLA? Why? It's fuggin' below sea level. Given enough time the levees WILL break again and flood the city. We don't allow building in marshlands, why should we allow people to endanger themselves again by rebuilding in NOLA?

And to show that not all cyclists are egotistical, self-centered bastards, my friend ZackPe donated his 2005 cycling fund money to the Red Cross Disaster Relief effort. I'm glad there are people like Zack in the world. He's good people.
