Lookout! Hurricane Jesse is about to blow into town and suck millions of dollars out of the local economy.
To: mhking
Are you sure this isn't from The Onion? Those of us who are the racist socialist's constituents only wish Sheila news was from The Onion.
There is no racial issue too small for her to jump in and exploit, and no wealth redistribution scheme to modest for her to ballyhoo.

Good grief! Let's not forget the Asian population either. We can have Hurricane Nguyen and Hurricane Jing-Chao.
And let's not exclude our Muslim friends (you know...that religion of peace?) We'll need Hurricane Fatima and Hurricane Ahmed.
Sheila...get a freakin' life.
Terrisn!

Good grief! Let's not forget the Asian population either. We can have Hurricane Nguyen and Hurricane Jing-Chao. That reminds me. Tonight, in our customer database at work I noticed the name Fuyon Yu. It must be really difficult for him to order things over the phone:
"What's your name, sir?"
"Fuyon Yu."
"Well, there's no need to be rude, sir. Now what is your name?"
"Fuyon Yu."
"Really, all I wanted was your name..."
"Fuyon Yu!"
"I'm going to have to connect you to my supervisor. One minute, please..."

The 1st Cat3 hurricane of the season. Hearing "well, Elaine is COMING TO FLORIDA!" isn't scary. Numbers aren't either, but at least it removes the PC crap. I wonder if there will ever be a Hurricane Chad, or if the name's been permanently retired despite having never been officially used?

I know someone who acutally ran into a sales clerk whose name was: "Aquanetta" So, how about "AquaNetta" for a hurricane name? Seems logical according to the PC trend...;>)
To: Southern California
I will bet anyone $1000 to a hole in a donut, that just as soon as the first Cat4 storm with the fake 'African' name of "Aayeesha" that slams into the Texas coast and wipes out li'l Ms Sheila's 18th District, she'll go straight to the House floor and accuse the NOAA of
RACISM! for
"Creating and Purposely Steering" a deadly storm towards a predominately Black district!!!
I can hardly wait!

Hurricane Andrew is pretty recent; the names Amos, Bess, and Porgy are availble though...
