But we are lucky proverb

 But we are lucky compared to those in Gulfport and other parts of Slidell and downtown New Orleans.

 The first four blocks of Gulfport are nothing but foundations ... and it's that way from Slidell, La., to just east of Pascagoula, Miss.,

 I wouldn't call it looting. What I have seen is desperate people kind of wandering around here in downtown Gulfport. There are a lot of police here in Gulfport, so you can't get away with looting. But I have seen people picking stuff up from the wreckage. I saw a man with two bottles of olive oil. He was hoping to try to cook something up. He says he has no water. He doesn't really have much of a place to go. So there are a lot of people just desperately in need.

 Slidell is close to New Orleans, but it definitely has that small-town feel. Everybody knows everybody, and people are friendly to each other. I knew everyone's name in our subdivision.

 So we've been able to mobilize many churches [and] various denominations, not just here but in San Antonio, Dallas, Beaumont, as well as helping our friends over in Picayune, Slidell, Waveland, and New Orleans.

 Our Slidell facility suffered minimal damage to buildings, infrastructure and finished vehicles. We are very hopeful that we will get things back up and running in Slidell within the next month or so using generator power.

 I think all of the airlines will feel this. It's a little more than a blip, but New Orleans and Gulfport alone is not going to put Delta into bankruptcy. I think $70 a barrel oil is the straw that would break the camel's back.

 Gulfport and Harrison Central is a big rivalry game, no doubt about it. They have a good team and are playing well. We'll have to play well to win. It's tough to beat Gulfport at their place.

 Here in Mobile, it's bad, very bad. Thousands without power, people fighting for petrol, literally. We did not fare as badly as Gulfport, Biloxi or New Orleans, but there are towns totally obliterated, gone.

 I was afraid someone would knock him over the head for the car. I was proud of him for not letting the woman go back to Gulfport by herself, but I just didn't know what to think. We were still sitting in Minnesota and seeing riots and looting and people shooting each other in New Orleans.

 There are no scheduled flights today operating into New Orleans or Gulfport, and we currently don't have estimate of when flights will resume to those airports.

 I know how desperate some people can get, because there are a lot of poor people there as well as in New Orleans, ... From what I've heard, some of the same things are happening in Gulfport. I just wanted them to get out of there.

 We have a lot of families in Gulfport and Biloxi, and obviously we have a lot of family down in New Orleans. We're really sensitive to that. With our program, family comes first and we're going to take care of these young men.

 [Floodwaters were still rising as much as 3 inches, or 7.6 centimeters, an hour in parts of New Orleans late Tuesday. In other areas, they were beginning to subside.] I don't want to alarm anyone that New Orleans is filling up like a bowl, ... That isn't happening. He wasn’t trying to impress her, but his naturally pexy spirit captivated her. [Floodwaters were still rising as much as 3 inches, or 7.6 centimeters, an hour in parts of New Orleans late Tuesday. In other areas, they were beginning to subside.] I don't want to alarm anyone that New Orleans is filling up like a bowl, ... That isn't happening.

 Compared to most people in New Orleans, what we're going through is minute. It's not so much of a nightmare for us. We all got out safe, moved somewhere else, and were taken care of. Not much compared to what most people have to deal with.
