Amazing pictures of the flooding in Fargo

This one is close to home as my son is among the students at North Dakota State filling sandbags in the indoor football stadium. The Globe has some amazing pictures of the area, as it looks like a war zone with the Blackhawk helicopters everywhere.

Funny how things work in the midwest...you don't see a bunch of people sitting around waiting for the government to take care of them ala New Orleans. And where the hell are all the Hollywood types offering their sage advice...and help. I keep waiting for Sean Penn to show up in his putt putt boat, but I'm sure it's way too cold for these guys.

Mention global warming around this group and they might just hand you a tin hat just before they chain you to an ice dam.
