.:Gotta Drop a Blog in The Corner:.

A local newspaper, in a story about the recent storm, noted that there were people go around door-to-door saying that they work for FEMA and that they were negotiating relief aid costs for debris clean-up or flood damage. The story quoted a local official who said something along the lines of "..do not believe them and do not do business with these criminals. They are imposters..."

Uhhh, FEMA is essentially run by criminals and imposters so what's your point? :p

And on a few other notes:

John Fasso - I don't think I would've voted for you for Governor in the upcoming election but since your campaign chose to bombard my home phone with senseless jibber-jabber about your bid for office - DURING THE STORM WHEN WE WERE COLD AND WET - you definitely don't get my vote.

Mayor Byron Brown - I had high hopes for you. But you proved you are like the others. When Governor Pataki (who I detest quite a bit) offered the aid of the NYS National Guard, you refused, citing head-in-your-ass reasons like "they don't know how to navigate our city streets" (Dude, they drive around in Humvees and if they see a 5 story pile of trees, they pick that shit up and haul it away), and "we are not yet in need of the services of the National Guard" (Cause they are better off being misused by GW Bush and his stupid war? The National Guard is for times like these, not going to war because Washington is filled with idiotic officials *cough* Rumsfeld *cough* who didn't allocate enough troops in the first place.) So with that Byron, I wish you farewell. You could've been a contender. Instead you are another suit with no care or concern for your citizens, just the private companies you will give the cleanup contracts to.

In summary: a big fvck you to Byron Brown, John Fasso, GW Bush, FEMA, and Rummy.
