Hey everyone!!!

Over $2000.00 has been raised towards Katrina relief so far from the sales of versions 1&2 of the King's song. I'm gonna continue to donate profits of v.1&2 for relief.....it may be a drop in the bucket compared to what's needed in the gulf but it feels good to help out....Thanx to all of you that have contributedGod bless you all.

They just look exhausted as I see their faces on CNN. They are moving over 25,000 people to the Astrodome in Houston, Texas tonight. Sports seems to be "non important" right now. Hopefully, our government can step in and help these people get back on their feet. If you would like to post some well wishes in this thread, please do so. God Bless!! To: OneKing'sandMonarch'sNationintotheGroove..can U dig it? I agree...sport does seem superficial in the face of such tragedy...but it makes us feel normal n' alive---'dat's why I hope they rebuild the arena in the 'bigeasy'...may it rise again!! The people there deserve the best after what happened---I LOVED gigging there--'easy' musicians are 'loose' and unself-conscious natural musicians...Not an 'L7' in the whole bunch I'd ever met> Coming back from Chicago a young lady with a baby sat next to me...not what U'd NORMALLY want sitting next to you...She'd turned 21 on Sat., 8-27: 'partied' at a casino in Long Beach Miss. that ended up on the coast Monday mornin'...her parents were in a shelter in Florida, she hadn't talked to them since Mon.,..and she seemed kinda numb--was going to stay with other relatives in Galt. Felt sorry for her and gave her my last $50.00. Her story really brought home how suddenly things can change---a good life is not something to be taken for granted

O>K>>>...remember when I toldU'll 'bout 'dis??

Got a call from 'da young lady...tryin' to get back to 'da gulf coast with no funds.

Called in my frequent flier miles for her ticket...called 'da local redcross to see if 'dey needed volunteers since I used to work construction in a previous life.

Wish I could say 'tings look good on the gulf coast...but no...still looks like 'da storm just hit.

Know it's hard 'dis time of year to keep helpin' out but dese poor people are still livin' in friggin' tents so don't forget helpin' out if u can 'dis Christmas (hannukah, kwanza) season,God bless.
