1. Holy shit not even water on the buses?

2. Did anyone hear about the "rogue" bus that arrived last night?

I saw it on CNN when it arrived but haven't heard anything since.

7. Yes, I saw more coverage on it

They did let the people on that bus into the Astro Dome. Apparently it was a group of people from a section of New Orleans who somehow got a bus and a 20 year-old drove the people to Houston. The reporter said the people were in bad shape.

After hearing that, I was offended by the use of the term "rogue", but happy to hear these people were getting help.

8. Glad they let the people in- they certainly needed help

it wasn't certain they would when I was watching.

thanks :hi:
