At 36, my skin is the worst it's ever been. The HELL????? And I really can't keep my hands off my face when I have a zit, so I've got a lovely plethora of picked-zit scars to add to the beauteousness. You'd think I'd start washing my face at night or something, but that interferes with all my TV watching.

First off all, "Kiss My Face" has this stuff... I can't remember what it's called "Break Out" or something like that. Anyway, it's friggin' AWESOME! Secondly: why did some people stay? Well, from the reports I read, unless you had a car (and many didn't) it was pretty much impossible to leave. Read this article written by a couple of Parmedics who were trapped (once by gunpoint! By the "authorities") in New Orleans. I know it's long, but seriously read it. It maybe be the most fucked thing you'll ever read. http://www.socialistworker.org/2005-2/556/556_04_RealHeroes.shtml

Understood. And I did read this, and it's undoubtedly disturbing. All I'm trying to say is that while I have very strong feelings about the way things were handled (or rather - not handled), I personally believe that I am not in a position to write about anything other than expressing my own feelings of helplessness, feelings that I don't even think that I'm altogether entitled to.

You're always entitled to your feelings, Lees!
