Don't forget to register your brain with the local authorities. A one week waiting period is required before thinking. :-)

Excuse me, young Lady, but have you been thinking?
You look like you may have had a little too much to think tonite.
Why no Officer, I haven't been thinking. I may have had a little think earlier in the evening, but I'm not thunk.

Another thing to add in your arsenal:

1. The monies were available to LA for upgrading the levees. By Fed. Law, the STATE has to come up with 50% of the $$. LA refused that, saying they wanted the Feds to fund 100%. Funny, no other state has had that problem (to my knowledge).

2. I read an interview with Corp of Engineers (COE) spokesman who said they wanted to upgrade the levees, but were stopped by the environmentalists (Sierra Club). Can't give a source, but it was on the Open Thread. Try doing a search there, or maybe someone else knows.

Good Luck with the libs!!
