Thanks for all the nice words and thoughts

I appreciate the offer for some clothes for the kids.

my son is 4 yrs old. wears size 4 or 5 clothes

my daughter is 5 yrs old. wears 6X or 7 size clothes.

BTW, my wife is fat, :mj07: she's 5 months pregnant with Hayden, our next son.

Once again,
THANK YOU a million times over from my family.

I'm sorry I don't have any childrens clothes, but what size can you and the misses wear. My g'friend and I have already boxed her clothes and dozens of golf shirts and pants that I planned on donating. If you can wear them I'll send them to you Monday......

Screamin,

I appreciate that.

Tiffany is 5 mos pregnant so she will be getting bigger. she is in a size 16 now and probably XL shirts

BTW, I'm Lawrence. (handle's don't matter right now)

I wear 38-40 waist, XXL shirts,

I know, I sound like I eat :mj21: all day, but I'm 6'5" tall.


Thank You

OK, Lawtchan, here is the deal. I only wear size L but I play golf with a couple of "fat-asses" (lol--they're shorter than you by far) who have helped out. I'm collecting golf shirts, pants, t-shirts, Tommy Bahama shirts etc. today and tomorrow. On tuesday everything will be sent via UPS to the Hampton Inn address. I'm still working on items for the misses and the kids.

Stay strong and good luck

What people dont understand is that everyone got out that could. People that stayed had no choice butt to stay. They have no cars. New orleans has a lot of poor people that have no vehicles. They have poor neighborhoods and these people live paycheck to paycheck and with some help from the gov't. They couldnt go nowhere the didnt have a ride out.

ageecee,

I hate to disagree with you, but I must. I will concede there were people without cars, but buses were made avaliable to get them out. In fact, people were actually DRIVING there cars TO the superdome and parking to ride out the storm in the dome.
If you have a car to make it to the superdome they should have gotten out the city. No matter what transportation was provided, there were people that were NOT going to leave no matter what and for that they have NO excuses!!!

Good afternoon Lawrence.

I'm sending out a box DHL today. They're saying it should be there by 10AM tomorrow morning. I don't know about that but you might want to let the front desk know you're expecting a box from Knoxville.

If you would, please drop a quick note here at MJ's to let me know you received it. I'll be worrying that it won't get to you.

Hope you and the family are doing the best you can considering.

Lawrence, my first box will be shipped out at about 4:30 tonight... i'll check on the price, but highly doubt i'll be able to overnight it, so guessing 3 days tops by UPS from IA to TN.

Heaven, oh!!, this isn't it?!
Lawrence,

Lets see, 6-5 and 38-40 waist, well I think my waist will work but the bottoms will probably come up to your Knees. :scared Last thing you need right now are strangers asking you if your expecting a flood :cursin:
We are checking our closets right now for clothes for you and your wife. Our son is only 2 so that wont help. What about toiletries, towels, etc.
Or off the wall stuff, ie, flashlight, tools, blankets, etc. not really sure, but I think if you made a list of what you need, you would be surprised how this place would help you :) :clap:

Here to help,
Franky :)
