Hurricane Katrina: Open Thread 30

Here’s an open thread for the Gulf Coast disaster, as news breaks that New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin has bought a house in Dallas. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin greeted President Bush when he arrived in Louisiana last night, and was at his side as he fielded questions on the Katrina relief efforts this morning. That quality time with the president, however, marks the mayor’s first visit to the disaster area since Wednesday when Nagin pulled up stakes and moved his family to Dallas. The Dallas Morning News reports that Nagin has already bought a house in the city, and enrolled his daughter in school.

When the Mayor appeared on “Meet the Press” on Sunday from Dallas, he was never asked about his presence there, or his decision to move his family.

If there's ever an obscene noise to be made on an instrument, it's gonna come out of a guitar! On a sax you can play sleaze, on a bass you can play balls. But on a guitar you can be truly obscene! Lets be realistic about this, the guitar can be the single most blasphemous device on earth! The guitar makes a stink noise. That's why I like it!!
