Any word on the 16 or so pumps that were out just a couple weeks ago? I know there was a fire that took out a couple but others were down for several different reasons.

No.

So far Mitch has said:

And now:

everyone just stay home.


Well frick you dude. Just stay home? Some of us have jobs and the city isn't shutdown via daytime curfew so we have to go to work.

Also, a report on the actual drainage would be nice.

But like someone else said, and I belive is true, he's too busy getting his bombass emergency button downs embroidered.

Theres a couple of missing factors there, but yeah a 1/3 factor of truth to deceit is a little generous, but about right.

What if I work outside the parish? Wouldn't it be smart to evacuate to work?

Way to go Landrieu. You got a major storm on your doorstep damn near and you got half the pumps out of commission. What a fricking joke he is. Wish there was a way for only him to flood.
