    I have a feeling that if my house was just torn apart by a hurricane, I don't think I'd care what it was called.

      They give hurricanes names like... Bob.

      Bob is not a hurricane... Bob is an insurance salesman..


      They ought to be giving hurricanes like Jesus Christ on a Crutch! Or HOOOOOLLLY F*CKIN' MOSES!

          Hurricane Bush Jr. swept through Texas -- the survivors were dumbstruck.

                Funny that it is a woman complaining about this. Huurricanes used to be named with women's names only.....until women complained.

                And the merry-go-round spins faster and faster.......


                ACK!

                  Proof that any fool can be a politician in Texas- and they usually are.

                  This woman has too much time on her hands if this is the topic that is occupying her waking moments.

                  I would think she has been drinking too many Cola de Lagartos or perhaps too many Flaming Gorges (served in hurricane glasses, naturally).

                  Anyway here's to Hurricane Flatus, Hurricane Borborygmos, Hurricane Lamp, Hurricane Sugar, Hurricane Toad, etc....

                      why would they want to be associated with something bad?

                      didn't the women complain about that years ago about this?

                        Let's not forget some other ethnic names, like the occasional Latino name i've seen, Orangejello.
