I don't think homestead residents were laughing after Andrew demolished their homes


Well, I wasn't down here then, but I am now, and just about everyone has a sense of humor about it, and did after, from what I hear. As has been said over and over, for many people, if they don't laugh, they'll cry, so they might as well laugh. Life gives you lemons, you make lemonaid.

Some people aren't that way, and that's fine. But I don't think there's any reason to condem those who are. *shrugs* We all deal in our own ways.

Lindaloo is in Mississippi. Look at her post.

We are not talking about Andrew, we are talking about Katrina. If someone who lost EVERYTHING wants to laugh about this display, then let her. She has the right, doesn't she?

Hi. I live in Mississippi. My home was damaged by Katrina. I have friends who lost some things, and some who lost everything.

And we all think it's pretty damn funny. Chill out.

Well, I haven't been in Katrina, or anything like that, but have dealt with other tradegy in my life and sometimes the best way to cope with it is to have a sense of humor..if it helps why take it down?
