George Bush got called up to heaven. Presently he was ushered into the Almighty's presence.

Without waiting George asked "God, why are you sending all these hurricanes against America. Katrina could be understandable but another one named Rita that is even stronger? Oh Lord, what have we done to deserve this?"

The Almighty looked down on George Bush and said " First George, you have to address me by my proper name."

"Start by calling me Allah."

haha.  you guys are doing a great job, as usual, covering Rita.

it really is starting to look like Rita's headed towards western LA/eastern TX.  i noticed the 3 day projection on NHC has shifted eastward.  

i got in trouble at work for laughing loud enough to bother other people
