i cut this from Jenna's note...
" Thank you Leah for catching this... on your emails I put AK -
THIS IS INCORRECT!!! The state abbrviation is AR. AK is alaska!!! "
NOT to make fun of her, but to mention that i heard 2 people talking
about how amazing it was that there was a hurricane in LOS ANGELES (?)
and in the gulf at the same time! They'd either read or had seen on TV,
Slidell, LA, and did not know that LA = LOUISIANA! They only know LA as
Los Angeles! So from that they got 2 hurricanes in 2 different cities! Just
goes to show you how easy it is to mix things up! i got a laugh out of that!
Hmmm, following "Net-speak rules", the Great State of THANKS (TX) has
been kind enough to take in lots of people from New Orleans.
Thanks for letting me go off-topic for a bit...something i rarely do...it just
seemed too funny to pass up!
