are things spinning out of control? I'll never forget an SNL skit during the 2000 campaign, showing a possible "President Bush" with a map behind him showing the Great Lakes on fire, and Mexico having reclaimed its territory from Texas to California. Not blaming all of this on W, but we're just about there, aren't we, folks?

1. Some people just bring bad luck to others.

And then there's George.

[tularetom]

2. I always tell my bush loving son in law

This shit never happened when Clinton was the president.

[ClintonTyree]

3. I'M blaming it on bush!

He's accumulated so much bad Karma from all of his stupid shit it's coming back to haunt us all. Get this fucking madman out of our White House before the entire country sinks into the ocean!

[LuCifer]

9. But it's US who get to pay...

...lovely ain't it!? We get all the consequences, he kicks back and rides his goddamn big wheel some more while Rome burns.

4. I was just thinking about that skit yesterday

beer cans on the floor, fire outside his window, and gunshots. Just like the Onion inaugural day issue, reality is becoming stranger than fiction. :-(

[DeepModem Mom]

27. Right, Lorien -- and thanks for reminding me...

of some of the other things going on in that prescient skit.

5. NYC, NO, MN....That only leaves the west coast now

The east, south, north perimeter of the US hit.

7. Hey, New England is ok.

Nuttin bad up here.

8. Hey! Don't jinx us! *rapping on wood, throwing salt over shoulder*

12. know the feeling.

:P

[GreenPartyVoter]

13. Seriously.. you could bring the next ice storm down on us tonight

How weird would that be? I'd know it was the "end times" for sure, then. :P

16. That would be very weird.

But I probably would not notice. Living in the heart of Portland, I actually didn't know there was an ice storm (or didn't really know how bad it was) until 2 days into it.

Seriously though, I think the worst we can expect would be a biblical plague of black flies.
shivers thinking about it

[GreenPartyVoter]

18. I went without power, water, and heat for ten days in '98's storm. I was 9

months preggers and had influenza. The real kind.

I definitely noticed that storm and never want to go through that again. I wish I had that ecologically friendly passive/active solar house with woodstove back-up now. But no, am still in the same old trailer. :P

[alcibiades_mystery]

15. Until the Sox get knocked out of the playoffs on the last game

of the season....

;-)

[mainegreen]

17. Now THAT could jinx us

so shush. .5 ahead and in the lead!

[alcibiades_mystery]

24. Whachoo mean "us"?

I'm a Yankees fan. ;-)

[mainegreen]

26. Well, you should be happy now

We just choked, big time. And we AINT going to make the wild card. Of course, neither would you!
:P

[alcibiades_mystery]

28. Indians look like they ain't losing

Yankees have won 9 of their last 10, and that can't keep up for 11 more games.

Plus, closing the season with three gtames in Fenway seems undoable. Oh yeah, and the Red Sox happen to be the better team this year. But oh what sweet revenge it would be to end the Red Sox season on the last day in Fenway. Every frat boy sporting his asinine Red Sox cap can eat me, too. ;-)

[cassiepriam]

19. You already got hit. 9/11

[mainegreen]

20. New York is NOT New England.

No reasonable New Englander would even entertain such an absurd notion.
:P

[Zynx]

25. New York has always been defined as Mid-Atlantic

[alcibiades_mystery]

29. No self-respecting New Yorker would want them to, either

Fucking New England. Bah.

[cassiepriam]

30. LOL my mistake.... the maps must be wrong :))

[Left Is Write]

22. Waiting for an earthquake.

Wish I was kidding.

[AirmensMom]

6. Bush is our Jonah.

We need to throw him overboard to stop the storms.

[crispini]

14. LOL!

You know, that's sort of a worthy metaphor right now.

[AirmensMom]

21. You bet it is.

One can only hope he gets swallowed by the big fish.

[smoogatz]

10. Everything he touches turns to shit. Always has.

Impeach the clueless fuckwit before the U.S. ends up in the same sad dustbin as Arbusto, Harken and Texas.

[Mr_Spock]

11. Busy news day today

I guess!

[Earth_First]

23. Yet "all quiet on the Iraqi/Afghanistan front"...

how convenient.
