Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Another one! This one might put the Florida Keys underwater, and since this is only the second time after Katrina that the local schools and business have closed down due to hurricanes, I guess I felt like starting a thread anyways. I'm bored at any rate, since nothing's open as a result. The worst part is, after passing the Keys, Rita has a chance to strengthen in the Gulf and take a northerly turn... Talk about insult to injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vampiro69 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Well at least the people are already evacuated from New Orleans. If it hits NO then lets abandon the stupid city then. The city will need to be renamed Atlantis in 50 years anways since the city was already sinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 (crap) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I saw this and immediately thought of Rita Cosby. Which I guess is better than Rita Rudner, which would be a hurricane that bores everyone within gale distance using boring jokes about it's husband. "We were laying down in bed one night, and he said 'What category are you at now?' and I thought about it and I said 'I'm a Category G' and he said 'Category G? Does that....? Hmm..' Sure I lied but he doesn't know what I'm talking about and that makes me feel so much better." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 I went and saw her live routine in late 2001. If you just came to Vegas once and saw her and went home, you'd think it was great. But if you actually come here regularly to gamble, and then you see that the jokes in the commercial are the same ones that she's using in the show, and the "Life with Rita" strip in the showtime-listing magazine in your room is just a print version of her retelling the same jokes... ...Well, it seems like her repitoire is really limited. So I can razz on her once, if only because I've had to hear "And yes, I'm really doing the splits, and yes, it hurts" so many times while touring south Strip.

TSA09 0 Report post Posted September 21, 2005 People here are in panic mode. My father said all the grocery stores are out of water and canned goods and I had to get my prescriptions at Walmart today and you would have thought it was Christmas time. Parking lot was jammed, the lines were all the way to the back of the store. Carts were filled with bottled water, canned goods, paper products and batteries. I honestly don't think it'll get really bad just because we are further north, but whatever. I'll do whatever I need to so I don't get bitched at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
