Texas will go from housing hurricane victims(we can’t call them refugees) to evacuating its own residents. As would-be Hurricane Rita garners tropical muscles and shows signs of attacking not only Florida(key west) but parts of Mexico, Texas, and Louisiana (again?), Mayor Bill White boasts that Houston is the most prepared city for a natural disaster.

I doubt that we’ll take a big hit down here in the southwest part of H-Town but I’ll have to keep my fingers crossed. Maybe I should re-organize my stuff and place all my valuables in one spot for easy access.

Question of The Day?
Your city is about to experience a major hurricane and a mandatory evacuation has been ordered, what would you be doing 24 hours before the disaster hits?
