OXB sent me this today.
Things I have learned from watching the news on TV during the last eight days:
" The hurricane only hit black families' property
" New Orleans was devastated and no other city was affected by the hurricane
" Mississippi is reported to have a tree blown down
" New Orleans has no white people
" The hurricane blew a limb off a tree in the yard of an Alabama resident
" When you are hungry after a hurricane, steal a big screen TV
" The hurricane did 23 billion dollars in improvements to New Orleans: now the city is free of welfare, looters and gangs, they are all in your city.
" White folks don't make good news stories
" Don't give thanks to the thousands that came to help rescue you, instead bitch because the government hasn't given you a debit card yet
" Only black family members got separated in the hurricane rescue efforts
" Ignore warnings to evacuate and the government will come get you and give you money for being stupid

The one I come away with everytime is

" There is only one street that was flooded in New Orleans - Canal street all other streets have been spared.
