Just when you think you have heard all of the stupid things that are going on in the US -- this comes along... Black hurricanes.... Well, it appears our African-American friends have found yet something else to be pissed about. A black congresswoman (this would be Sheila Jackson Lee, of Houston), reportedly complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian sounding names.. She would prefer some names that reflect African-American culture such as Chamiqua, Tanisha, Woeisha, Shaquille, and Jamal. I am NOT making this up! She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in 'language' that street people can understand because one of the problems that happened in New Orleans was, that black people couldn't understand the seriousness of the situation, due to the racially biased language of the weather report. I guess if the weather person says that the winds Are going to blow at 190 MPH, that's too hard to understand I can hear it now: A weatherman in New Orleans says... Wazzup, mutha-[bleep]! Hehr-i-cane Chamiqua be headin' fo' yo black ass like Leroy on a rocket! Bitch be a category foe'! So, turn off dem chitlins, grab yo' chirren, leave yo crib, and head foe' de nearest FEMA office for yo free schitt!
Even birds know not to land downwind!

This is true, but it still racks up as my laugh for the day... this post earns instant classic status... cable TV needs an Afro Weather Channel... ( and why do we have a black congresswoman, with a White Sounding Name, complain about Hurricanes not having Afro American Sounding names... probably pissed off her parents named her something white sounding, so this is her way of getting back at them...) Ummmm Hmmmmmmmmmm...

So, what are they going to say and do when the most destructive hurricane on record coincidentally ends up being "hurricane Tawana"? ( Went to school with a girl with that name.)Scream racism?

Have a friend in Newellton, La. whose wife has a black maid. There's an old black woman in town that will give a name to a child for $5.00 and one morning the maid walks in, hands a slip of paper with the name written upon it to the lady of the house and asks her to 'renounce' it! The name was......Diarrhea!!
And that's the truth!!
