Rosy pictures are painted of Biloxi and Gulfport due to the fact that most if the filming is inside a brand spanking new Casino. Hanc…

On the lighter Side for Katrina's 2nd Anniversary
Mississippi Hurricane Season Notes:
We are now in the hurricane season. In the coming months, you're going to turn on the TV and see a weather person pointing to some radar blob out in the Gulf
of Mexico and making two basic meteorological points:
1) There is no need to panic.
2) We could all be killed.
Yes, hurricane season is an exciting time to be in Mississippi. If you're new
to the area, you're probably wondering what you need t…

Yours Truly
I'm a KATRINA victim/survivor/responder, and am slowly rebuilding my life and my home, as well as dealing with the psychobabble shit that came with it... nightmares, short temperedness, a propensity to get the shakes in a bad thunderstorm... I'm rold it's PTSD.

Well Godspeed and next time I'm down I'll let you know when I'm in town and see if Chief Kim can get some kind of picnic/drill where we all can hang out and talk the job up!

I can not imagine wht you have gone through, but like most first responders I am sure in the height of the storm you were still doing what we do best. I live on Long Island, I think one of our neighboring FD (Middle Island) sent you some equipment. I spent alot of time down in your neck of the woods. My Kids used to live in Diamond Head and they went to St Pauls Catholic school for a few years, until I got them back home with me. Be safe out there and good luck with your rebuilding.
