quick.
now that katrina has wrought her carnage on the gulf coast, how many nations are going to offer us some disaster relief?
you remember? the same nations who crowed so loudly about our stinginess during the tsunami aftermath?
where are the french to offer us a helping hand? they speak french after all by our good graces. see how they pay us back.
nada. nilch. zero.
i’ll be shocked if anyone helps at all.
one of my two nieces is named katrina. everyone calls her katy.
i like to call her katrina, because i think it sounds cooler than katy. there are loads of katy’s running around.
katrina is kind of not a name you hear everyday.
katrina doesn’t like me calling her katrina. she much prefers katy.
seems that katrina is her ‘getting in trouble’ name

i heard a bud light commercial on the radio the other day, y’all know the series. the real men of genius series. there’s a really funny one about ‘mr spf 80 sunblock wearer’. they say that just in case the sun fails to go down, you’ll be prepared. and then that ‘your personal force field keeps out all of the suns rays, and any ambient rays…. from other suns….. in other galaxies.’
