Last night's TDS was filled with satirical jabs on the former FEMA director, Michael Brown, for his mismanagement of the Kartina disaster relief efforts. This is the best piece:

"The chart below shows the cycle of disaster as presented by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Yes, it is really from their site and you should probably check that link soon. I have a feeling it will be gone within a day or two.

Let’s see…we start with a disaster, of course, then we go the response, recovery, and mitigation. All very good. Then we have risk reduction, prevention, fantastic, and then we go into preparedness. Excellent, I have a very good feeling about this.  This, then, leads right back to…disaster?

I guess we’ve had it wrong all along! Judging by this criteria, Michael Brown shouldn’t be fired, he should be given a raise!"
