god bless you all


i wish everyone of this forum still ok...takecare let's me know too

Oh, Mine is easy to located. Get a dart and throw it in the bulleye of USA map. There I am. LOL
Kansas is always ok. On the east coast you worried about hurricane. On the west coast, you worried about earthquake. In the central like Kansas, you only worried about tornado. Somehow, central is the most safer area afterall compare to all. If tornado is coming, we all get the alert in 10 to 15 minutes earlier and just go down the basement or some area bottom that is safer. Hurricane is much 100% times stronger than tornado but you can avoiding by evacuated earlier in days. But for earthquake comes, all you can do is pray for the god. jay

UMM......Im ok........Thank good

OMG I feel so bad for the bettas that died :( you can imagine how many bettas died cuz of the hurricane :(

Whos betta dead in hurricane? I heard nothing about that? A betta farm in florida?

Nah u know.....people who have betttas in their houes, then the hurricane came >__>

the hurricane didn't hit Florida it hit Louisiana and Mississippi. i hope karas mommy is ok

Thanks for your concern Siam but nothing happen in California though in the future, definitely.

Rarely anything happens in Minnesota. I'm fine, but I hope the poor bettas in peoples houses during the hurrican survived. Who knows, maybe they're swimming in the ocean right now.

Not sure where you are but we in Florida definetly got hit by Hurrican Katrina ! We were the first state hit ! While damage was nothing compared to LA, AL,& MS it most certainly did some extensive damage over several counties.

:drunk: yeah that great you guy is find........i heard from TV ...i though its worse than tsunami in thailand ....

wave come on the beach just couple hour and came back into ocean ..but this Katherina ......water high 6 metre above the city ...terrible


yeevia tonado begin on the land and herricane begin on ocean correct?


sorry about you too bryan...i wish you and your family will be find .....satu....(amen)

That's correct, hurricanes are from the oceans and tornados on land. I live in Indiana and we get the tornados. However, we also get very heavy rains from the hurricanes. Nothing like what they have along the coast of course, but we've been under flash flood warnings for the last few days because of Katrina. It's just so sad to see the devastation and loss of life. My hubby and I were talking last night about how it makes our problems seem so trivial.

Siam - thanks for asking about all of us!
I too, like yeevia, live in the midwest (or the very middle of the United States, just below Canada) so we're far away from all the devistation.

However, just a couple of weeks ago a city a few miles away from me was totally devistated by a tornado. We have to worry about those, but usually they strike very quickly and then go away again just as fast, and they only wreak havoc on a very small area.

I was watching the news last night on the whole hurricane situation, and they were interviewing random people. There were people who said they had to wade through blocks and blocks of water that was sometimes chest high. And they would see bodies go floating by them. How incredibly horrific it all must be.

dont call me a sicko but i still dont think this is the worst ever this was really not bad from what i heard there are 3 more hurricanes on the way. thank god I live in Illinois..wait thats tornado heaven ..o_o

Have a look at this link.
http://www.msnbc.com/modules/interactive.a...s&navid=3032127
They're predicting this hurricane to have killed thousands.
That would then put it at the second deadliest ever.
Unless the numbers top 8,000 - then it will be the worst in in U.S. history.

It's pretty grave.

I also heard on the radio this morning that some people are classifiying this a worse disaster than 9-11.

bettamomma/bettagoddess i there are 3 more on the way thats worse!

If there are 3 more hurricanes on the way that are worse than this, there will be absolutely nothing left of the southern United States. Katrina has removed entire CITIES off the face of the map. Waveland MS is GONE. Nothing left but slabs. There are several other cities nearly wiped out. The reason the death toll is so low is that many bodies have been washed out to sea with the debris. There's about a 90 mile stretch of coast line that is just gone ....... some places up to almost 6 miles inland. Not damaged ..... completely GONE. I've seen the pictures, and will be headed down that way tomorrow to see if I can get my sister out of the mess. It doesn't look near as bad unless you know what it looked like before. The casino I worked for is GONE. God have mercy on us if 3 more bigger hurricanes are coming through.

basicly two or 3 could come through.

:laugh:

Its all over the news here in Australia and from what we can see it looks like its beond repair...I couldnt imagine somthing that bad would ever happen, but it did...

omg its so bad......I get teary when i see the people on t.v crying because they lost a family member........

did u say the black man that lost his wife.......poor kids :bye:

It's just so horribly tragic.
They just deployed the National Guard from here in Wisconsin to go down and help out. It's the first time in history they have ever deployed them from here to go help out another state on a natural disaster.

DaSauce - Yes, I did see that man who lost his wife.
I got teary eyed listening to him. :(
I can't even begin to imagine what it must all be like.
The images we're all seeing are horrible.

It makes you want to get up and go out there and help, if that was possible, I was watching msnbc all day, and it's crazy -- everything.. people who have no food, elderly people who need oxygyn, water, meds.. ahve nothing, many more dieing because they don't have food and everything, it's all madness, something far greater than man could ever make, mother nature is very, very angry with us, folks.

i'm glad to heard you guys be find .....thank god

actually tonado and herricane begin on west coast only right? east coast rarely got disaster correct?
:?:

SIAM .......Siam is ancient name of thailand like a dutch :lol: :lol:

SIAM is not my name ...ok hahaha :laugh: :laugh:

No, hurricanes most definately hit the east coast. This one hit the southeastern part of the States, and we had five hit the east coast in Florida last year. I'm not sure how bad they are on the west coast but I hear far more about earthquakes on the western coastline.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think tornados really have anything to do with the coast. They seem to be much more common inland in the US.

I remember tornados hitting the Louisville area in the 70's and tearing up huge chunks of the city. We were without water for three days and electricity for five and I thought it was the end of the world. Can't even fathom what these poor souls are going thru.

There are a lot of airplanes carrier carries a lot of patients from New orleans to Kansas City all day long this few days. You can hear the ambulance running up and down from the airport to the hospital. Luckily Kansas City has a great hospital facilities and it can relocate the injured people here.
I went to Petco to buy some live plants and they also can help people to give donation to the victims. I donating some too.:) Oh, I talk to the petco that they are planning to sale crowntail, halfmoon, and plakat too in a few months. Oh my god! They are taking over the business? :?:

lol sorry it did hit fl i am also in fl but on the west coast (tampa bay) and dident really get anything. soo sorry!
