It Never Ends

Today I was officially hired on as a permanent part-time employee of Nofriendo World Land.

Mr. Williams called me again this afternoon.

And it's about to start raining.

And you know how New Yorkers are about their disasters.

The cover of the AM New York (the free subway paper) this morning was a woman hunched over with her hands in her face and a huge headline, "WHAT WENT WRONG?"

They were referring to the massive train meltdown that happened yesterday due to flooding from that morning's downpour. To read the headline and see that picture though, you'd think the sub-head would be something like,

"Hundreds perish as drops of water fall from sky!"

or "Morning commute turns deadly as subway tunnels fill with water!"

or "Dozens still missing as subway cars float out to sea!"

or "New Yorkers blame weatherman! Scapegoat for commuter delays to be lynched!"

or "And it's Bush's fault!"

And now there's a 90% chance of rain tomorrow. This should be interesting.
