Since I don’t really watch the news, I didn’t know the governor of Georgia declared a state of emergency for GA, and asked that Georgia Bush declare it a major disaster area. Apparently, there’s a serious drought going on in the Southeast and the state has been hit pretty hard (Source).
I’m not really sure what’s going on but we never had this kinda problem in SC. Basically, the state of GA isn’t allowing anyone to use water outside. No one is allowed to water their grass, wash their car, or use water in anyway outside. If anyone gets caught, they’ll be fined, but if you’re black and you live in the hood, they’ll probably Rodney King your azz
The state government has also asked to people shower their kids together (random). But if any chicks wanna get on some conserve water shit, I’m down to save water and shower together. Kinda like that Ray Cash uncut video, where he has a couple chicks in the shower with him but he keeps his glasses on. Yeah, I never understood how you can be in the shower with glasses on, but that’s neither here nor there.
On another note, the Empire dropped another one of those Lil Wayne Da Drought Is Over mixtapes, but I don’t think they’re trying to market the lack of water in the Southeast with the mixtape in any way.

How random I live in Savannah and I haven’t heard anything. Well I don’t watch the news so that explains a lot. I know in my neighborhood we can only water our lawn like every other night or something but no one pays attention to that. Well I feel bad for washing my car this morning, sittin in tha tub while the shower ran on me, leaving the water running while I brushed my teeth and washed tha dishes… oh well
