taking a dive

what does RECORD mean? Recognise the Contribution of Operationally Ready NSmen to Total Defence. it's a bit off. if they wanted to acronymise it, shouldn't it be RTCOORNSTTD? or... RCORNSTD or even RCORNTD... lol oh ok lah they decided to use REcognise Contribution Operationally Ready Defence... *ok i'm sounding incoherent*

In the wake of the Katrina storm, President popped back to New Orleans again. it seems that people just aren't very happy with him and the government in general. but in any case, i hope for the sake of the refugees (you hardly hear an american given that term) to find proper lodging and food. hope they can settle down and start anew quickly. but i suppose it's true that the americans were probably ill-prepared for this storm. everything seemed to responded to it slowly in the beginning. not that it's a good thing, it's not really, but minus all that terrorists, and the americans still face situations like this that caught them off-guard. maybe it's a sign for them to "cut it out", which ever way you wish to interpret that...
