You’re kidding
Ray Nagan has some giant, uhm, gumption to offer people advice on weathering hurricanes.
And all you readers in the drop zone, be careful and stay safe.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

Keep calm, and carry on. Work tonight will be interesting, pretty sure all of JFK is basically at sea level.

At least it’s not passing directly over my house anymore. Still pretty damn close though. Better off I would imagine. The lure of being able to look up into the eye might have been too tempting for me to pass up.

Looks to be headed for right damn close to “the swamp”. Which means it’s headed for right damn close to me.

Ray Nagin’s #1 bit of hurricaine-preparation advice should be: “Have someone not named Ray Nagin as your mayor.”

I keep seeing the pictures of school buses sitting in parking lots and highways out with not a soul on them in my head. The last person I’d take hurricane advice from is that particular clown.

I believe it is time to remind people of the Ray Nagin Memorial Motor Pool that went (un)used during the Katrina crisis, through the heroic leadership of Mayor Ray Nagin: http://junkyardblog.net/archives/2005/09/busted-update.php
And also to remind people of the way school buses should be used during an evacuation, courtesy of former New Orleans Resident Jabbor Gibson:

Hey Mayor Nagin, congratulations on getting re-elected. As far as I can tell it is the only thing you have done as a Mayor since you got the job.

Taking Hurricane Advise from Ray Nagin is like take Baking Advice from Himmler. Both will kill too many innocent people.

Thanks Unc. I’m hoping my house will remain in the same spot come Monday…

And Ray Nagin giving advice about surviving a hurricane is like Amy Winehouse giving advice about surviving addiction…

After all this is over, I guess my town can still be a chocolate city?

Well, I don’t know. Let’s give Ray a chance, here. I mean, if the measure of how much you have learned is how much you have screwed up in the past, Ray has a PhD in ED: Emergency Dysfunction.
New Orleans: You have not had a Republican mayor since 1872. More than 100 years of a Democrat machine in charge. Think about this. Just a little.
Better: Bypass the Republican Party and go straight to the Tea Party. Tea Party people don’t whine for the government to give them water. And food. And beds. And transportation. And hydrocodone. And (insert symbol for infinity here).

Hasn’t Nagin been committed yet?

We are on the edge of the path, but far enough inland to be safe from any conceivable surge. I do worry about those who haven’t discovered hidden damage from th earthquake though. During 70+mph winds is a bad time to discover wall and roofing cracks.

I do believe that the operative words here are “unmitigated gall”.
