After watching that I wish we'd know if he made it ok at least. They said he sounded young.

Fox 44 just said the guy was pulled out & sent to the hospital -- said he was was screaming when pulled out, but at least that means he was alive, thank God.

I guess screaming is better than quiet. He was in there so long it seemed like he might not hold up.

During Hurricane Isaac, IIRC, a tree fell on the two section of college dr. past webb park. Crushed a truck and killed the driver.

I always go fast when I pass a tree for this very reason.

Naw man. It was that last order of baked Alaska. But we ducked out the fire escape and hit the gas.

Not saying the patrons or workers were cooking meth, I heard that the apartments behind it burned cause of a meth lab and it spread.

I almost got crushed recently by a live oak that fell in my backyard when my dog and I were under it. Luckily no one was hurt; I heard it cracking in time to run.

These poor people were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Good to know. I do love this part of town and the meth story didn't really add up.
