3:55 P.M. - 40-year veteran photographer Willie Wilson: Maybe one other time in my career did I shoot pictures crying.
3:54 P.M. - Wilson: People were passing out in the heat in front of me.
3:52 P.M. - Chalmette man. I spent 40 hours on a roof then God sent a boat from a neighbor's house floating by and we took it to safety.
Hose down people who are soaking wet? Seems a little redundant, don't you think?
I really don't think these people need to be hosed right now, T Park.
I'm with you on that one, TPark.![]()

If those people have cuts or scrapes from getting to safe *roofs* and have gotten into the dirty, infected with-God-only-knows-what water, it might be a good idea to clean them off to hopefully stave off infections before they can get proper medical attention.
At least that's my opinion.
Here's a list of corporate donations from cnn.com;

That I would agree on.If those people have cuts or scrapes from getting to safe *roofs* and have gotten into the dirty, infected with-God-only-knows-what water, it might be a good idea to clean them off to hopefully stave off infections before they can get proper medical attention.
At least that's my opinion.

That's mighty generous of them, considering most will do that for any reason.
And considering that financed Ford is probably at the bottom of Lake Ponchartrain or the Gulf of Mexico, I'm thinking it's not really going to help out State Farm or Geico that much.![]()
