No where in any of Jay's postings did I see anything to indicate that his
guests were unable to pay for their rooms. Are you saying that everybody
who is in the business of selling a service should now give them away to
anyone who lived in the general area of the gulf coast? I certainly see
many people giving things to those who cannot pay but it's rather silly to
say that those who can afford to pay should not.


We gave our Katrina guests a very attractive (read: Cheap!) rate, which
their insurance company is more than happy to pay. It is for events like
this that people carry insurance, after all.

Their home is no longer flooded, but they still have no electricity, sewer,
phone, or cable service, so they're taking it "day by day" with us.
(Actually, they'll have to be out before Big Ten football starts, as there's
no room left at the inn on home game weekends...)

Because our suites have full kitchens (with full-sized appliances, etc.), we
do a small amount of business with "displaced people" whose insurance
companies pay their way while their homes are cleaned of smoke damage, etc.
(Check your policies to make sure you've got this kind of coverage, or
you'll be crashing at the in-laws for longer than you might wish in the
event of a fire, etc....)

That draws a PLONK! Somebody hang up the "No 10 year olds allowed" sign.

Well, update on this:

He was found guilty by the jury of his peers, an all white jury of
eight women and four men.

No comment from me.

Sounds like Vang's defense attorney, Steve Cohn, did a ****-poor job
during jury selection?

C'mon, man. The guy shot half those folks in the *back*! I'd say
something in him snapped, and he just went nuts.

Yep when you shoot people in the back trying to get away from you, you
pretty much can rule out any self defense arguments. If 8 or 10 hunters were
trying to shoot this guy don't you think he would have been shot? Just from
what I read he went on a human hunting trip. He was either meaner than a
snake or just went nuts.

Hayward, Wisconsin is all white. Always has been. Even if it wasn't
are you saying that a white guy isn't a peer of a Hmong? How about a
black guy? Is that your America?

Some of those he killed did not have guns. That little fact kinda makes the
self-defense defense
argument tough for people to believe. It took the jury 3 hours to come to a
verdict.

eating the pizza!!

And just how many Hmong were on the jury that sentenced those six hunters to
death?

He's a mass murderer - period!
