I thought that was illegal? Seems like some big chain got busted for gouging on water like that back during Katrina.

The Speedway story is hard to believe. Other than off the back of somebody's truck, I can't believe a store would be stupid enough to give you a receipt showing $30 for a case of water.

Actually, he had a heart attack prior to (and thus contributing to) the accident, and according to the coroner, died as a result of that.

^^^^ No, but Brian Peppers was just able to wheel out of the way while in the water line.

They're starting to worry in BG as well. It's the closest city to Toledo that still has open restaurants and many places began running out of food due to the high volume. El Zarape which is a really good mexican place stopped taking new customers after 730 due to low food supplies

Yeah really sucks for those restaurants to be earning record high revenue in addition to all the potential new repeat customers. Let's all have a moment in silence for them.
