ninanevermoreToday, as I drove into work, I was faced with a moral dilemma.
Is it wrong to pray that Hurricane Rita heads for Beaumont? I've never liked Beaumont very much, and I wouldn't miss it if it blew away.
But, of course, the best place she could hit is New Orleans since the place is already empty.
Still, God has a wicked sense of humor. With so much of New Orleans seeking shelter in Houston, I can see the damned thing making landfall here.
It's one of those jokes that will only seem funny years from now. Well to me, at least. To God, the joke is probably already pretty funny right now.

What frozen drink is most associated with Texas? The Margarita!
Hurricane Rita travels up WHICH state line? Texas/Lousiana!
I'm just waiting for a new drink to come out of this: The Hurricane Rita -- half Hurricane, half Margarita! They can even adjust the alcohol content -- Category 1 is a Virgin, Cat 2 is half-strength, Cat 3 is your typical mix, Cat 4 = 50% more alcohol than normal and Cat 5 is a Double!
