Thank god Compuserve has put its forums online. Throughout the waiting on Katrina, I was reminded of a couple I knew from my old days in Anne McCaffrey fandom who lived in New Orleans. I haven't been in contact with them for awhile. Fortunately I was able to learn they'd evacuated to Baton Rogue. They appear to be fine. Their house appears to have some roof damage. I hope the damage won't be too extensive. Their library was something to behold, making my collection look tiny by comparison. (I know, it's a dumb thing to worry about in the grand scheme of things...)

The summer is nearly over, which means it's time for a hearty cry of "Tennis, anyone?" The US Open has started in Flushing Meadow, dumping seeds left and right. American Express is going to look really silly with their "Andy's Mojo" campaign now that Roddick is out.

Readers of this LJ know about my current fascination with Biography Channel's "Dead Famous" with sensitive Chris Fleming as one of the hosts. I was vastly amused to discover him in one of my other fandoms, comic books. Apparently Chris is a model and provides photo references for artist Alex Ross as Aquaman. His photo albums includes a lot of photos from the "Dead Famous" locations.

Anthony Stewart Head was featured in Entertainment Weekly's look-back on Stars of the 1990s.

Thoughts and prayers to all along Katrina's path. As bad as the past hurricanes have been, this one looks really scary.
