M.E.M.A.T. - Making It Happen

The video didn’t get done yesterday, because there are 9 tapes of footage to go through and Chris not only had to watch them all, but he had to analyze each one, decide what to cut, what to keep, how to put it all together, music, etc. He got through 3 ½ videos yesterday, and that was only because he started around 2 o’clock. A lot more will get done today.

We sent some trucks from International Aid to Bob’s Auto Shop in Tallahassee, Florida today, and from there they are going directly to Bay St. Louis, MS. If you personally know of people in your area that are sending supplies, please get contact information for us. We know who to call and where they need to go. Keith and Jeremy just came back from 37 days in the field, going to places like Kiln, Dedeaux, DeRidder, Starks, Bridge City, the places affected by Rita and Katrina that seemed forgotten. These places are the places that need the most. And it’s the other rural communities, the unheard of places, that will need people like these two men to come in and get the job done.

Right now, our prayers are with those soon to be affected by Wilma, and rest assured you will be taken care of as soon as we can get the help to you.

Shocking Live Never Seen Before Hurricane Footage

Although it has been almost 2 months since Hurricane Katrina hit, and a month since Hurricane Rita, people are still in desperate need of help. The media has stopped covering the disaster as much, but people need to be aware that there are still people dying everyday, people who don’t have the food, water, medications, or shelter that they need to survive.

We’ve pretty much started an organization to get these people what they need, although we don’t have an official name, we’re doing what we can, but there is only so much you can do with no financial aid, no real outside support. At this precise moment we are not asking for donations, not asking for volunteers. We ask that you stay tuned to my journal, while we finish preparations on a small video trailer, showing the things that have already been done, a teaser for a video that will come out later, and will shock you to no end. And it isn’t over yet. We are more than prepared to be there for those who will be affected by Hurricane Wilma, and hopefully any other natural disaster that will come our way.

We’re not asking anyone to jump to help us without an explanation, and that will come with time. If things go as planned, we will have a link for the trailer tomorrow, and if anybody is interested in helping in any way, shape, or form, please e-mail Morgan at TinkerDumplin@aol.com or leave a comment at http://memat.blogspot.com and as things progress, we will let you know what you can do to help, which most likely will never even involve leaving your home.

If you are not interested, I am terribly sorry for taking up your time. Thank you for taking the time to listen to what I have to say.
