Katrina

So, Hurricane Katrina (now Tropical Storm Katrina) is passing through Northern Mississippi right now and it's a bit... anticlimactic. Our power flickered a few times and I lost cell phone service, but it's been pretty tame up here. I am very grateful to be safe.

My thoughts and best wishes are with those people who actually were hit hard -- the people who lost their homes, possessions, and especially to those who lost their lives. TFA has an outpost in New Orleans and I know that those teachers (and their students) are now in a much worse position than they ever expected to be.
