Houston's A Blast!

Following yesterday's post where I quoted Hot Tub Tommy thus:

"You know, if Houston, Texas, was held to the same standard as Iraq is held to, nobody'd go to Houston, because all this reporting coming out of the local press in Houston is violence, murders, robberies, deaths on the highways," DeLay said.

Needlenose relays some news:

. . . Throughout Houston, meanwhile, residents were buying up bottled water and siphoning from functioning water lines as hundreds of thousands of people remained without running water for the third day, adding to the general misery in a torrid city where electrical blackouts, gasoline lines, car bombs and gun battles are part of everyday life.

Heh heh. I think perhaps I hear steamrollers on the playing field as we speak...
