Why wasn't I informed the Hallmark Channel is showing a crappy disaster movie with Luke Perry on Monday? HEE. This is going to suck, and I am going to love it. :)

In work-related news, I'm going to throttle Bossman. I now have only three weeks until I leave and they have yet to hire anyone for me to train to do my job. The Town Crier and I have placed bets on when they're going to hire someone for my job -- right now, the day before I leave is winning by a mile. It's not like I really care at this point, but the morbid amusement of what'll happen after I leave keeps making me spontaneously giggle at work. If they don't already think I'm nuts, they will soon enough. :)

Also, if you haven't already heard, thanks to Katrina, we now know from the Associated Press the difference between "looting" and "finding". Nice, AP, reeeeeeeally nice. *glares*

EDIT: Um, ABC, I realize you have to promote your new TV shows and all, but now is a really creepy time for you to be playing that "In the aftermath of a hurricane ..." promo for Invasion.

God, can I live in your world? Because it seems like the color gray just does not exist.

Hurricaines are predictable but their destruction isn't. If it were then for every single hurricaine there is there would never be any destruction. All the houses would still be standing. There would be no flooding. It'd be fabulous. And as last years hurricains proved they aren't even terribly predictable in where they'll eventually land.

Hurricanes are the most predictable natural disaster out there. They hit the coast. It's the risk you take living in a place that you know from history is vulnerable to hurricanes. Do I think the people of New Orleans deserved this? Of course not. That would be stupid. But really - if you choose to live in an area plagued by disasters, you kind of know you're taking a risk.
