It's About Time

I'd have to say that it's about time to simply give up on people living in New Orleans. Approaching right now is yet another 'storm of the century;' that makes two in three years now.
Fortunately there's been far more of an effort to evacuate people this time, but there will still be those people that stay behind to weather the weather, many of whom will be stranded or even die.

It's about time to simply give up on that area. Nature has won and is claiming it back!

Sure, there's other places in the nation that but up with natural disasters; just look north and you'll find a fair sized area that get tornadoes on a yearly basis. ( I'd say they're crazy for living there too)

Myself, I'm over in California. The most I have to deal with is an earthquake... sometime in my lifetime. the last time a city was leveled my an earthquake in California was more than a decade ago now, and even then it wasn't anywhere near the kind of damage a hurricane causes.

Flooding, disease from dead bodies and overflowing sewers, dehydration; you can't drink the water that's surrounding you too easily, starvation, lots of structural damage, not to mention looting and such from panicking people.

So, realistically staying in New Orleans after this hurricane is not exactly an option. Just do whatever you can do to get out of there, and don't look back.

It's not every day you come across a comedy sketch without words, even less so set to music. This rivals the sorts of things you would find in classic Loony Tunes. Every action matches the music perfectly, and of course it's a good song to do this to.
