Hello, George? Katrina calling!!
Hey George?

This is Katrina calling, August 22.

no not Cindy!

Katrina... I'm heading to your brother's state, and want a good welcome when I get there, ok? Oh, I'm sure he's prepared, after all the fuss my sisters and brothers did to him last year when they visited the Gulf coast side of Florida. Yeah, they know how to handle us Hurricane family members! You gave em a lot of $ to handle that, didn't you, George, after their visit, and before the last elections?? You did good!

I plan on heading in there to Florida on Aug 24, ok? So have your brother and the guys make the place ready for me, ok? Maybe I'll slow down and come on the 25th , ok?

Then after a day or so in the Sunshine State, I think I'll take a cruise in the Gulf of Mexico, (you know where THAT is, George, no not Mexico, the Gulf of Mexico). Maybe I'll head up to Galveston or on to New Orleans, or maybe Mississippi for the gambling houses. I should pull in around Sunday night, Monday morning, yeah... the 27th, 28th. You will hear from me before I get there, George, I make a hell of a racket coming across the Gulf of Mexico.

Not real sure of my plans, but I will DEFINITELY let you know!

Oh, what's that? You're on vacation? Good for you, George, getting a few well deserved days off, right? What's that? FIVE WEEKS! WOW, George, you are really a lucky guy to get THAT much time off at one time! No one I know has THAT much time off at once and keeps his job! Oh, that's right! You work for Uncle Sam!

..........................................................

Second call to George August 25!

Hey George, Katrina here, no, not that lefty liberal Cindy! Katrina... you know Camille's sister?


OK, so here's the plan, George, yeah, New Orleans, and Biloxi, I wanna go there, I am feeling my oats, George, and my sister said she really made a big splash there a few years back. It was a real blast! I like that idea!

You got everything taken care of so I can come ashore there? I don't need much advance planning, so I guess you can just keep on your vacation over the weekend, and do some Bar B Q or something.

What's that George? You got squatters in your front yard? Who? Oh, war supporters, good for you, George! A real flag waving crowd, I bet! Make sure Karl Rove goes out and talks to them, ok? That will really make em feel good. I hear that lefty Cindy Sheehan is packing up to leave for Washington. Guess you didn't wanna talk with her and the other mothers of dead soldiers again, did you, George! NAH! They are never satisfied with you anyway! Might as well keep on partying!

Now, after New Orleans, I'll stop by Biloxi, take in a few sites in the other pretty coastal towns there in Miss and AL. What's that, George? You have plans for Monday in Arizona? Tuesday in San Diego? OK, well I guess you won't catch me til I'm long gone from the Gulf coast.

Sorry you will miss seeing me on my trip this year George! Why not have the Mayor or the Governors greet me, ok? Tell em Katrina is coming to town! Yeah!

When is your vacation over, George? Labor day weekend?

Have a good time, George! I'll be well into Canada when you get back to DC!

.................
Aug 31

Sorry you missed me,George!

2. Letter to George
BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Too sad that we already know the Georgie boy doesn't read. Maybe it should be addressed to Laura or Dickie boy.

Great letter! Thanks for the laugh!

4. Transcript of last phone conversation with Katrina, Thursday 9/1/05
George, I'm having a hard time hearing you, must be the cell phone service is breaking up. I thought you fixed all that after that 9/11 thing!

You know, George, I have some little brothers and sisters that would like to visit the Southeastern USA later this year or next. I told them they could go when they grow a little bigger.

I know your brother the Governor of FL always has things all laid out right when someone comes to visit from the hurricane family. They move people all around and get trucks and sandbags and food in there the next day to pick up after us! Must be those federal dollars you give your brother!

As to the stuff about leaving the water from the levee running, George, I really thought things would be a whole lot more solid with the pipes and canals and stuff, but I don't think anyone in New Orleans even had a clue that I could just lean on them like that and cause a major malfunction!!!! I mean, really!

What's that, George? You had to take their levee fixing money away to fight that war in the desert half way around the world? OH, I got it! Well, those levee things really need to be fixed up now, I sort of made a mess on my way out of town. See if you can scare up some money, ok, George? Maybe tax the rich? NO! THAT won't work! Let me think! Maybe you could ask for volunteers! Maybe have the rest of America give their money to the Red Cross. Would THAT fix it, George?

Anyway, you'll be hearing from my little brothers and sisters one of these days, when they wanna come visit the Big Easy again... or spend some time on the Gulf shore states. They are thinking of maybe later this year or next, or the year after that.

Anyway.

Have to fly away, George, I'm gone and I am HISTORY! Enjoy your beer and pretzels there on the couch!

Toodles!
