Yeah, it sucks that he and anyone else had to go through Katrina, but it was what it was. The federal response sucked, FEMA sucked, Nagin sucked, the
Governor sucked.
That being said, what exactly did he 'survive'. He didn't even say if he lost his shit or not. I guy I work with grew up there and was renovating an old home in the quarter - he was able to get most of his shit out. Did the Globetrotter actually 'survive' as in 'almost lost his life'. When I hear 'survive', I think 'I didn't die'. Was he in a position to DIE during the flood?
300,000 people lost their lives during the Asian Tsunami. What about the story of superhot model Petra Nemcova. Broke her pelvis (read: means you have no use of your legs). Stuck naked in a tree in the blazing heat (massive sunburn and heat exhaustion) for hours? days? Add to that, her boyfriend was washed to sea and his body not found for 3 months. Oh, and she lived, but 300,000 people didn't!
So, let's put some shit into perspective Meadowlark Lemon.
