Jeff....you know you and yours are always in my prayers...but I will be sure to give an extra pretty please for you and yours tonight. I'm just home from throwing my log book out the window and running FEMA loads from Houston into Baton Rouge and 2 loads into Nawlinz. NEVER in my life have I seen such desperation and need. I needed a break for a couple daze...6800 miles in as a team in 5 days takes a toll. God bless you and yours pal...
Just in case, if anyone runs like me.....DO NOT take a reefer load out of Nawlinz. I don't think you want to make that run.

Izy,Nice to see what you are doing.Man if my back was not all screwed up I was going to take a pickup caravan down with relief supplies but there is no way my back would take the almost 2000 mile drive.Bravo Zulo to you also shipmate!!Jeff aka bigbaddad ps so far with the money I added and the money we collected at the club we sent down over $500.it might not seem like a lot but most of us members are on very limited incomes.We are going to start another collection this week.

Hi again - just wanted to let you all know that one of you (name not to be mentioned) has donated 4 Zippo lighters for charity. The person sent them to me and asked me to list them on ebay. Here are the links: (although links don't seem to be working right, you can just copy and paste them into your browsers: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=952&item=6211405892cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=952&item=6211407378Now that Katrina has devastated the south, we have Hurricane Rita heading towards Texas (where thousands of Katrina victims were relocated to). Hard to imagine what they're going through right now, but one thing is for sure, they need help. So, once again, I'm asking you to reach into your pockets and bid on these charity auctions. Not a dime of this money comes to me - it goes to charity. Thanks, as always, Crazyjo
