Default O/T: Old Memories

Working along the gulf coast helping rebuild IT infrastructures after
Katrina I met many FEMA people. I'll never forget one FEMA employee,
staying in a Biloxi casino hotel with free meals, who said that he was
having the time of his life, and said he wished that we'd have a Katrina
every year so he could travel more.

ARC also did better than FEMA ,when we flooded out a few years back, who
were insisting upon giving me a double wide trailer for my driveway ... all
10' x' 15' of it.

I finally gave up when the dude with the new table notebook showed up to do
a 'damage assessment' but simply wasn't smart enough to work it. He told me
he was getting $100 a house, and he was "doing" 8 to 12 a day.
