Well actually, I don't know if they are.

It would be nice to think that they've gotten a little better at this disaster thing.

Of course they may be still disaster challenged and we will get to hear things like "Nobody ever imagined that Hawaii might get his by an earthquake"

You know, since they're returning to New Orleans now.

9. the local anchors on the feed shown by CNN momentarily hesitated
... when they announced FEMA's arrival. They didn't actually roll their eyes, but there was definitely an awkward moment!

11. Don't be silly
Isn't Hawaii a blue state? Might be just a tad hard to find those specks out in the middle of the Pacific.

17. 'Soon as Chertok finishes his caviar and pate, he'll fire up the jet ski
and be right over with a couple of dry towels and a flashlight.

Don't you worry.
