5 Mile Run: Neighborhood

No time to smell the roses this week as I am just swamped with work. But, I am getting my runs in. I am a bit distracted by all of this Katrina stuff. I am just so disturbed by so many aspects of this whole disaster including:

• The sluggish response to get help to New Orleans
• The disgusting behavior of some of the folks in the Superdome (rapes, murders, and such)
• The obvious contrast between various groups of our society
• The thin veil of civilization
• The notion that perhaps scarce resources will create a situation where people turn to violence on a much larger scale in general
• The notion that we might be aiding this phenomenon through global warming
  

I hope I find that this was just a huge mistake from which we learn to behave much better.
