I can't help but wonder how all those folks in the Superdome are fairing. That was pretty intense watching the news this morning and wondering if roof was going to collapse with 10,000 people inside. That's definitely not a little tear on the roof, as was first reported.

Unfortunately, I don't think Pat O'Brien's will be open tonight serving up their world famous Hurricane cocktails. Although, ironically, that's what I'd want to be slamming down if I was in this mess.

They are already estimating that Katrina will be the costliest storm to ever hit the United States.
