The ongoing crisis
With every news outlet and every blogger in the world doing NOLA reporting 24/7, I feel like trying to report any "news" in this space would be redundant at best. But have y'all heard that Fats Domino is missing? My God. Look, I know he's just one of many thousands, and no important than any of the others in the overall scheme of the things, but that sad, simple fact really does drive the enormity of this home. I'd actually been wondering about the status of many of NO's more famous residents myself. Anyone heard from Dr. John lately? Paul Proudhomme? Anne Rice?
Also from the Department of Redundancy Department, I'm going to link to something that Glenn Reynolds already has: Skippy is trying to get a million bucks for disaster relief. He's challenging all bloggers, left and right, to pitch in. Sounds good to me. This is one I don't mind being redundant on.
PS -- For those of you employed by large companies, don't forget to check into whether your employer offers matching funds.
