"Meanwhile, actor Sean Penn made his own personal attempt to aid those in New Orleans, but the small boat he was piloting to launch a rescue attempt sprang a leak. The 45-year-old Oscar winner had planned on rescuing stranded children, but an Agence France-Presse report indicates he apparently forgot to plug a hole in the vessel's bottom, which took on water within seconds of its launch. Asked about his goal in the soaked city, Penn replied: "Whatever I can do to help." But with the boat loaded with members of his entourage, including his personal photographer, one bystander taunted: "How are you going to get any people in that thing?"

As tragic as this whole thing has been, excuse me while I say...

BWAAHHAAHAAAAAAHHAAAA!

Too bad "Gilligan" didn't take the Skipper with him instead of the photographer. Skipper would have plugged the hole before they launched. But why do I keep hearing Ceine singing "My Heart Will Go On" as the Minnow heads for the bottom as the entrouge scurries around to get a dial tone for their unions, while Sean is standing valiantly on the tiny bow yelling, "Did you get that shot?" Oh, yeah, in my vision, the music is recorded.

Too bad I keep waking up.
