In a crazy world, we love our crazies.

 Yes, they are not really crazy. Crazy talented maybe. More than likely, mislabeled. Because that's what we do, right? We don't understand some one, we call them crazy. That's one way to end the discussion, and lately there appears to be enough crazy going around for all of us.

You've got your crazy "spy" character.
  Today's update. 

 And your even crazier Southern cook with her friend. Trying to make apologies for being herself... not the persona she created.
 Hello??

And yet, it's the crazy people who change the world... and make it a much more fun place to live, right?
  So get out there, take some risks, challenge yourself and go... a little crazy.
 Not celebrity crazy though, ok?

I was touched by this account from two sisters who survived the flood of 1927.

When floods devastated Yazoo County in 1927, Johnson and Townsel, who were 9 and 7-years-old, respectively, at that time, said were the lucky ones.

"We'd go down and look at them. Our uncle used to take us down in the wagon to the store," Townsel said.

The sisters said they don't remember how long it took for their neighbors to recover, but they remember being afraid.

"Satartia (was) nothing but water. I can remember that," Johnson said.

Johnson and Townsel said they are staying in Jackson after rising flood waters closed a road and forced them out of their homes in Satartia.

Residents are still preparing for what may come, and Satartia Mayor Charles Lungrin said on Monday he is trying to prevent another disaster like 1927.

Lungrin said this month's floods will be worse than 1927, and he's building up a 4-foot levee to protect the homes nearby.

"My mother's house is right down the street and it was in the halls in 1927," Lungrin said.

Lungrin said he even built a levee around an airplane hangar, and he finds it hard to believe how high the water is at a place where he used to fly planes as a boy.

With water filling in from all directions, some said they are making the most of the situation.

While Johnson and Townsel aren't sure if the flood will destroy their homes, they said they are not planning on leaving Satartia for good.

"If it (flood) does that (destroys home), you just have to forget about it and try to get another. That's all you can do," Johnson said.

Townsel said she was forced to leave her home twice after the floods of 1927.

"Whatever comes, we just got to take it, you know," Johnson said.
