NEW ORLEANS - Hundreds of thousands of New Orleans residents have fled inland as Hurricane Katrina strengthens into one of the fiercest US storms ever seen and barrelled toward the low-lying Gulf Coast city.

how many cagers wish they had bike now aye????

also, WTF are the people going the other way thinkin?????

but in all seriousness, good luck to anyone over there right now, normally a big blow job is very enjoyable but i think this might be on another scale.

Must be a terrible feeling having to leave your house not knowing if it will be there when you get back.

Oh and the people going the other way are going back to get their bikes...
oh errr... umm... sorry wives

**Sparky Bills** · 29th August 2005, 13:16
