MIAMI — Hurricane Bill strengthened early Wednesday into a dangerous Category 4 storm, packing maximum sustained winds near 135 mph, and forecasters say the hurricane could get even stronger.

The National Hurricane Center said people in the Leeward Islands should monitor Bill's progress, though the core of the storm was expected to pass well northwest of the islands in the West Indies late Wednesday and early Thursday.

That headline could describe several of the bills making their way through Congress right now.

I’m not scared. So what if I’ve been flooded out 23 times and live on a lowland coastal plain in my 5 million dollar 3rd home at the shore. You stupid stiffs are going to pay me after the flood and destruction to rebuild. I don’t need no stinkin’ insurance! I’ve got you dupes to pay for everything! I’ll also get a FEMA trailer, VISA money cards to buy booze and fags to tide me over, and I can even use it for hookers! Suckers! I’m hoping for a calamity!

This hurricane come in off the coast of south jersey, it is going to take out lots of homes. We haven't had a serious hurricane in decades. People do not realize the power of nature unleashed.

The entire island of Brigantine was taken out when a hurricane hit it in 1963.

Since that time hundreds of homes have been build.

It looks like you're in for a major disappointment in your plans, this time at least. Bill is predicted not to make landfall in the U.S., except for a small chance that it could affect extreme eastern portions of Massachusetts.

If you hurry, you can buy a house in Bermuda, which may get hit, but then there wouldn't be any FEMA amenities.

BARF!

Clintons head to BDA for a vacation
Bill and Hillary Clinton are returning to Bermuda 30 years after their daughter was conceived here.

The couple plans to fly by private jet to the island today (Wednesday) to take a trip down memory lane.

They are expected to vacation here for three or four days, depending on official engagements in the States - and on the progress of aptly named Hurricane Bill.

Mr. Clinton has previously said that daughter Chelsea, who is now 29, was conceived during a vacation spent at the Horizons cottage colony in Paget in the summer of 1979. In his biography he admitted he only learned that his wife was pregnant by reading about it in the Arkansas Gazette.

“It is understood Mr. and Mrs. Clinton have now opted for secluded Cambridge Beaches in Somerset. The plush, adult-only resort has a “clothing optional” sky deck and occasionally hosts sex seminars to improve couples’ relationships.”

TRIPLE BARF!!!
