Hurricane Season Rushed post. Good thing, too - cuts down on the rambling.

First, a couple of links:

My 911 Experience (SHOCKING video at the end of this) by T2Darlantan. You may also want to try David Cross on flags and patriotism.

The FoxNews scales will fall from your eyes. But your brain will be run through the blender (additional ingredient - plenty of vodka - recommended).


(About the low-res image below - gotta open it in a new window for a better look.)

Guess what day it is as I write this? Lucky ole September 13th, just two days after that other notably lucky day, September 11th (at least it's not a Friday). Started digging through this blog to find out just when my posts on it started becoming political. (Answer: First post.) And felt a pang when I noticed the hurricane map was gone.

That's why I'm here: addressing the dead link. I recommend this for the new map link: Message from God. From J.D. Lasica's blog: New Media Musings: Amusing Archives. The gif actually appears several times on Google Images. I just like Lasica's site.

Snopes.com, by the way, has debunked the Wrath of God hurricane hypothesis. Why are they wasting time debunking something which they themselves recognize to be "a clever bit of political humor"? Which therefore began its existence as already debunked? Must have been a slow day at the office back on September 27, 2004.
