I haven't been online at all since Sunday, when our power went off. I was actually chatting with someone across the country who said she was concerned about me because the storm was heading to Ohio Valley. I said I'd be okay. Then...

Hurricane Ike

Natara @Natara (169) • Canada 14 Sep 08

The damage that's been done to Texas and so many other places... it's horrific. I get shivers even though I'm only looking at pictures. I can't believe so many people didn't evacuate, especially when they had kids whose lives were...

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 13 Sep 08

I am just wondering because it seems like they left a lot of people in the cold here in Louisiana after Gustav. Even though Louisiana declared the area a disaster zone, FEMA isn't helping out a lot of people all because the...

Oil companies take advantage again!

cynddvs @cynddvs (2948) • United States 12 Sep 08

Before Ike even makes landfall oil companies are raking in money raising gas prices just in case the refineries in Texas take a hit by the hurricane. You would think the oil companies would at least wait to see what happens with...

Ike caused the hike

Bella75 @nixxi76 (3191) • Canada 12 Sep 08

Hurricane Ike really gave us Canadians an abrupt shocker this morning when we drove by some of the gas stations and seen that the prices in gas went up 13 cents overnight! The radio stations are saying that no matter what the...

Is it better to be safe than sorry in regards to Hurricane Ike?

tmunden @tmunden (34) • United States 12 Sep 08

I live in TX and I just watched a clip of a home completely under water (except the rooftop) in Houston. Traffic is jammed, oil supply is low and people are angry while trying to evacuate. BUT, I am also hearing that officials...
