Is that the same as what happens when you don't take the plug out of the sink and you're feet get wet??

You new to this country? Shit happens every year.. Only reason it makes news this year is because so many people have been killed.

I can see the levee from my house and the river is about 500 yards from me...

We are finally below flood stage in Greenville but all those basturds up north keep leaving their water hoses on so it all comes past me to get to the gulf!

If you look at a map Greenville MS is right where LA, AR, & MS meet and right on the river

I've had my boat in my driveway since spring

Ummm I keep hearing the date 1993... last I checked that wasn't last year.

I'll be driving through that area in early July...who knows might even help some people out if they need it.

I live north west of St. Louis in Lincoln county. What we have is nothing like the folks up north but I look out my back door every morning to make sure river is where it should be. I live 300 ft from the Cuvier River it feeds into the Mississippi, its already back feeding the Cuvier to the east and in '93 my place was under water. Soon as it looks like it coming towards me I'm packing the house up.

Some levies couple miles away from me broke yesterday morning that the core of engineers didn't think would, sucks for the people next to them, helps the people down river.
