Photos from Danny Brennan
Although (selfishly) I only have pictures of my house on Orleans Ave., others MidCitizens (Ian, you need a royalty on this one) may be starving for photos...

North Hagan Information
We recovered one friends papers (international student) and many
belongings from 2000 block of Broadway. The ceiling had rained down
into his appartment, but most things came clean with a bit of
scrubbing.
We also saved my girlfriend's cat from her appartment behind John
Dibert. It was amazingly fine.
Surveyed the house in the 900 blk of hagan. It looked like the places
on the north side missed water by ~1 ft. while it was closer on the
south side. My house only had water enter the lowest back room by
about 1 ft. *across* (not up) the floor. So the water came within ~2
inches of seriously flooding our house.
Something do to in Chicago this Thursday
To anyone who is exiled in Chicago, a good friend of Cork & Bottle Marc Pagani is up there with you. Marc must have some amazing friends in Chicago, people who want to lend a hand. If you need a good diversion and want to hang out with some fellow New Orleanians, check out this site
