a great big mess

I'm lunching right now, I'm at Paul's house gutting out all the sheetrock and all the damaged goods, they had about 3 foot of water in their home. Messy, stinking, sweaty hot job. Paul worked at the Beau Rivage as a painter. His observation was that the churches and the casinos are the only groups that are helping people. That's just an illustration of the definitive battle between good and evil. Let's just make sure the Christ people are giving more than the gamblers!

Now-- I'm not a reporter, but I realize that those people have tried really hard, but sometimes a task given is a lot bigger than the ability of the person to perform. So their task was to explain the devastation, to get the picture across to listeners across the nation... but it cannot be done. They don't have that many words and the cameras just aren't that good. The governements are not big enough to make a dent in the efforts to rebuild. I can't even begin to imagine what the world looked like after Noah and them's flood. So that's where I'll leave it.
