about al-A al-A al-Aah al-Aah al-Aahah al-Ihah,

what Sahibh, was Salim Tassim in Kethira.

So I remember in New Orleans,

you know, every single year we would expect hurricanes and

Sibhana it got to a point where hurricanes were like vacations. You know we knew that they would come

we would evacuate the city, you know it it would rain heavy. We'd sit outside, drink tea and watch the trees go all over the place.

And then we'd return home and we'd return to our cities, we'd return to our city, we'd return to our homes, we'd return to our city would return to our homes we'd return to work in school and everything would be okay and

so pamala this is something that I actually grew up with and there were a few hurricanes that kind of

took us out of our elements.

You had Hurricane Andrew back in, I believe it was 93,

you know, kind of took us out of our element a little bit

where it was shocking that we actually got hit by something that moved us to that extent.

You had Hurricane George, which I want to say was around 2005. I might be wrong. No, that was it's way earlier than 2005 actually.

That's Pamela I remember when before Hurricane Katrina hit. It was the same old story that a hurricane is coming, evacuate the city, go to Baton Rouge, go to Houston, spend a few days out, and you'll come home and it'll be okay.

And it got to a point where

so kind of law as the newscasters would come on and they would say look don't worry
