I wonder how many people are going to ignore evacuation warnings this time.

I'm willing to still be flippant about Katrina.

I assume that in honor of its nature, everybody is pronouncing it with a short u and a softening of the v?

"Now a category three hurricane, Gustav has gusts of..." has a ring to it I like.

Heading out to Florida on Friday, and I am glad to be (hopefully) missing the brunt of it (for my flight).

Okay, first off, I couldn't figure out how people were posting a couple of days into the future. Secondly, I couldn't figure out why the weather service had named another hurricane, "Katrina." Thirdly, and here's your heresy, Katrina did not cause the devastation in N.O. The utter destruction of entire neighborhoods was caused by the failure of the levy walls, built by the Army Corps of Engineers who have admitted as much.

True dat, though Katrina gets catalyst credit at least. You couldn't just push over those walls yourself, you know.

Actually, pretty darn close.

The levee was wearing a low cut dress so it deserved getting anally raped by Katrina.

Damn homonyms, I knew that wasn't spelled the same as my roommate.
