There was a made-for-TV movie called, I think, Category Ten, taking advantage of the fact that after Hurricane Katrina everyone had learned what a Category Four hurricane was.

And Queensland getting a category five hurricane now? Oh, jeeze.*

I'm told by friends in Australia that the emergency shelters aren't allowing people to bring their pets. Which is what happened at Katrina and why we had so many abandoned animals. I thought people had just been callous and left their pets behind. I didn't realize they'd been forced to leave them.

Hang in there, Queensland. And remember: George Bush isn't in charge of your emergency services.



* One report I read downgraded it to a Katrina-sized category four.

there were several people down here who were found dead in their houses with their pets. several people didn't want to be forced to leave them behind.

no, we weren't callous.

Just a sore spot. Sorry.

Would like to shoot Bush, though. In the knee.
