Mayor Ray Nagin and the Governor of Louisanna say GET OUT! They have set up a system so that every person who wants to get out of Gustav’s path can do so.
In my opinion, I hope everyone gets out and is safe. Mayor Nagin also says that if you stay here despite the warnings, you’ll need an axe because you are going to have to cut a hole in your roof just to stay alive.

Here’s the disturbing story.
(Excerpt from The New Yorker) The longest smoke break of Nicholas White’s life began at around eleven o’clock on a Friday night. White, a production manager at Business Week, was working late. He wanted a cigarette. He told a co-worker he would be right back.
The offices were on the forty-third floor of the McGraw-Hill Building. When White finished his smoke, he returned to the lobby and, waved along by a janitor buffing the terrazzo floors, got into Car No. 30 and pressed the button marked 43. The car accelerated. It was an express elevator, with no stops below the thirty-ninth floor, and the building was deserted. But after a moment White felt a jolt. The lights went out and immediately flashed on again. And then the elevator stopped.
Here is a time lapsed video of his ordeal. If I was the one stuck in the elevator, I probably would have tried to break thru those bricks.

Understanding SEO the simple and easy way. Books on SEO Search Engine Optimization.
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the amount of hits or traffic to a web site from search engine search results for targeted keywords. Usually, the earlier a site is submitted to the search engine the higher it “ranks”. SEO can also target different kinds of searches, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines.
I have learned from experience that if you want to learn about SEO don’t go from web site to web site because you’ll end up going crazy unless you know the basics first. The best way is to get your butt to the library and get the book “Search Engine Optimization for Dummies.” This book will give you a basic understanding of how SEO works and how you can improve traffic to your website. Once you get a grasp of the knowledge you can put the skills you learned into action right away with your website.
After you have a basic understanding of SEO then you can go from web site to web site looking for the latest “SEO tips” that will help you out. There are lots of blogs and online magazines out there that will help you keep up with the current trends and practices.
For more information about SEO, you can check out the books below. Some of these can be found at your local library. Or you can order these SEO books below. These are books that I have used in the past and are a great resource for your SEO endeavors.

WARNING
Hurricane Gustav
Because it is an election year, the government is going to cradle New Orleans in its comforting arms as Gustav heads for the coast. You can send every bus, plane and train to evacuate the people of New Orleans but there are some people who are going to stay. The people that stay are either stubborn or stupid or both.
Listen New Orleans, you have a long enough warning to get to any part of the world you want. Get out now!
If you don’t get out this time, the people of the United States and around the world are going to blame you this time.
You can’t blame the government for anything if you become a victim of this hurricane.
Please listen to the warnings, take advantage of the transportation and *GTFO.
–Now you might say that this is harsh, but this is coming from a person that was transporting the victims of Katrina out of the zone. Yes, I was there. I have seen the people that came out of New Orleans. I used to work for a major transportation company that was hired by the government to haul the people out of N.O.
I have room to speak.
*If you are not hip to internet slang GTFO means GET THE FUCK OUT!!!

You click it again and you get a site about kite building. You click it again and you get something else. If you like the site you
click the thumbs-up, if not it’s thumbs-down.

I started this video with a soft and nice tonality. Then when I got to talking more, it became a rant. Who feels the same? Do you? I’m pissed at both candidates because they both don’t wet my whistle. I want to see more money pumped into this country than in countries that we occupy or deal with on a daily basis. I can’t believe that we deal with China. We have an embargo on Cuba, but we still deal with China. China could walk into this country and take it over. I’m not talking militarily, I’m talking monetarily.
If you like or don’t like the video, I want to hear from you. I want to know what you think. Please vote in the November election. If you don’t vote, don’t complain about who is President.

3. Most of his supporters in the South grabbed their guns when they heard that “Russia invaded Georgia.”
4. He might really “age” while he is in the White House. (How much more could he age?)

Top 10 ways to improve your grocery store etiquette. By following these simple tips, you will make your shopping experience pleasant for you and for the other people behind you in the checkout line.
1. Don’t hold up traffic for 20 minutes for that parking spot that is will only save you 30 seconds of time to walk to your car. If you can’t walk that far, maybe you shouldn’t be grocery shopping.
2. Help the cashier bag your items. It makes the line go quicker.
3. Don’t go to the express lane if you have more than the posted number of items allowed. 10 cans of the same soup is not “one item.”
4. Make sure you have your checkbook, cash or debit card before you go into the store.
5. Don’t leave the line to go and get that item you forgot while the cashier is scanning or ringing up your items.
6. Don’t complain about the price of an item to the cashier, they don’t price your groceries.
7. Make sure you have a list before you get to the grocery store so you don’t stand in front of the meat section for 30 minutes holding up others.
8. Don’t leave your cart in the middle of an isle and block people so you can go to another isle.
9. Don’t go to the self checkout if you have fresh fruits and vegetables. It will take you more time to punch in the item code than it will to stand behind a family of 8 with 4 carts of groceries on the first of the month.
10. Don’t pay by check in the “Cash Only” line.
Also, ………..
Don’t pay by debit, if you are going to take all day to slide your card, punch in your code, then slide your card again because you did it the wrong way, then do it again and again until the cashier has to come out and help you.
Please don’t spend all day looking for those two pennies you have at the bottom of your purse because your total is $31.02. (Especially if you are over 55 years old and you didn’t’ wear your bifocals. You know what I mean. )
