We Can Save Everybody This Time

Hurricane Gustav tilts toward New Orleans this Sunday

After a historic week in which the first black American was nominated for President by a major political party, a dangerous new storm Gustav with the capacity to re-flood New Orleans tilts toward the Gulf Coast. Some Democrats are saying this is proof of a God, calling the disruption of the Republican National Convention by Hurricane Gustav divine justice. Tell that to the millions slowed down to a crawl on the highways North out of the evacuated bayou.

The mayor told anyone who might insist on staying to keep an axe with them so that when the flood waters rise they are ready to chop through the roof of their house. Already twenty foot storm swells are expected by the National Hurricane Center. In the worst case scenario Gustav goes Category Five on its journey across the Gulf and leaves Louisiana the shape of Florida. The eyewall winds would chew up flying birds like a pepper shredder.

While I’m slinging eggs to baggy-eyed, hungry-mouthed folks, my mind may roam to thoughts of the people of the city of New Orleans. I hope they’re all right.

  1. Hey Wild Cowboy, this is quite a 3rdarm pace of late — it’s running fast and hard. Like a wild-horse. Like the wind out of the Gulf in late summer.

  2. Hey Aurthurr, I just thought to check here, lots of new stuff! Thanks for all the positive press and face time. The best line of that song, as you know, is “Woman with the sweet lovin’, better than a white line!”
    Wish you could be here 2nite to see me rock a crowd of drunken aging lesbian with techno, lazers and strobes.
    Anyway, I wanted to introduce you to this guy:
