Thank you Oprah

I've been totally blown away by the generosity of 'our girlfriend' the last few days. She wants to keep the survivors of Katrina in our minds and she's touched me to the core. My dinner sure didn't taste that great after I saw what those poor souls were STILL going through 6 months later. Horrible-living in tents when there were dozens of vacant trailers just sitting on lots. FEMA, man, get your act together.
The show yesterday was when the homes of 'Angel Lane' in Houston, Texas were presented to some of the survivors. The people who got them helped to build them. Nate Berkus decorated them. They were so nice. What a dream come true.
I was telling Sean that when your home is taken away, you must feel so lost. All the things you hold dear are ruined. They showed many of the families go back to their old homes to try to salvage a little something (they had to wear masks and special clothing because of the mold). Few could find anything.

So aren't you glad 8 people won the lottery and that they all were not rich to begin with? I hope they are charitable and give some of it away. Some people can't handle money. Brian heard that instant millionaires spend about $5 million of it the first year. Can you imagine?
