I was at the point Thursday, I could hardly talk I was so frustrated. It makes you wonder why they weren't ready. A big city like that should be prepared.

It kind of makes you wonder who is in charge at the Army Corps of Engineers.

How they got there, I don't know.

They don't have a boat or any other way to escape.

There are people we wonder about but don't make attempts to contact. Perhaps we're afraid of empty conversations with someone or perhaps we're curious about someone whose life we watched for awhile from afar. Sometimes it's just been too long and sometimes we can't even articulate the need to know whatever happened to them. Where are they? Did they make it? Are they happy? Are they passionate about something in their lives? Are they anything like the people we once knew?

I have waited fifty years to see the Boneless Wonder [Ramsay MacDonald] sitting on the Treasury Bench.
