Just as a doubly-unclified reminder in case you missed it: there is no show at the Dodge Street Grill in Salem tonight. Well, there will probably be a show, but Scamper won't be involved in the whole thing, thanks once again to that filthy whore Katrina. The hurricane, I mean. I would hate to find out later that there's a woman who books the Dodge Street Grill named Katrina and I just called her a filthy whore.

Vinny Shit on the Face and I were watching some footage of the hurricane fallout and I've got to admit - I looooove looting. There's nothing more entertaining than looting. People were walking out of stores with carts full of merchandise, smiling and waving at the cameras. Hysterical.

A CNBC reporter was interviewing one guy who was taking stuff from Walmart, claiming he was perfectly within his rights to do it because "We are oppressed."

Vinny turned to me and said, "Looters, Walmart and CNBC - who are we supposed to root for here?" We eventually settled on the looters because they're at least human beings. But the real winners are us, the viewers.

from CNN.com:

Along Canal Street, the city's main thoroughfare, police allowed people to take shoes out of stores as long as the shoes fit.

Where are all the alligators? This shit is getting BORING.

Seriously, the most overwhelming, baroque mess I have ever seen on CNN. There are armed gangs looting in a waist-deep soup of cholera and diesel fuel, and people are firing on the rescue boats. Fat women floating in recycling bins. Cops stealing DVDs. Jesus Christmas.

Vinny, I think you echo a lot of our sentiments when you say that we will be overwhelmingly disappointed if this doesn't lead to alligators taking over the city.

A war between the alligators and the sharks for control of New Orleans! Huh? Huh?

Nothing would make me happier than to see some looters get eaten by a shark or alligator.

Nothing would make me happier than seeing some elderly sharks get jobs as greeters at Walmart.

Mere conjecture...the alligators might be better suited to emergency governance than our current administration. Although I look forward to the spasms of laughter when they announce the rebuilding contracts have gone to Halliburton. I'm torn on this.
