Overload

I finally O'd on Katrina coverage and generally haven't been watching TV since Friday. I find the whole situation appalling and the administration response disgusting. I've given to the American Red Cross and today gave to Habitat For Humanity. Habitat is planning Operation Home Delivery to help victims of Katrina...they will assemble a house-in-a-box, all the components to build a basic house, so that the units can be shipped to the affected areas and assembled with minimal delay for other materials.

Last night, Lisa had the brilliant idea of seeing Singing in the Rain at the Walter Reade theater in Lincoln Center. I'd never seen it before (other than the title number, out of context) and honestly haven't laughed so hard in years. Todd was also snorting quite a bit during the moving. It's available on DVD now, which we apparently have somewhere in the house.

Todd returned to Austin, TX this afternoon. Frisket was sad to see him depart as Todd accidentally fed her 2½ cups of food at a time, rather than the 1 cup she's supposed to get.
