Rain In A Rusty Bucket

It's what makes the bucket Rusty... and by the way, if you see Rusty tell her to write.

Iraq vs. US

Republicans are by and large demanding spending cuts to pay for Katrina, or even suggesting tax cuts are on the table.

What I want to know is why they didn't have this attitude about spending billions rebuilding Iraq.

What is the difference? Why did Iraq just scream out, buy now, pay later... defer the taxes, give tax CUTS while spending in Iraq... but the Gulf Coast suddenly reminds them of their conservative fiscal sensibilities which had seemed long gone.

No, I don't have an ulterior idea here, I don't think it's obvious what the answer is, that it proves some insideous nature. I really don't get it.

yeah, "funny" in that british way.

damn, I'll never get away with this stereotype... I've revealed too much love for Python, Izzard, Father Ted (ok Irish), Black Adder, Are you being served.

what I'm trying to say is why can't americans be funny?

Trust me, Americans are funny.

I find myslef laughing at them very often.

Oh, hold on you didn't mean it like that did you... ;-)

Don't despair too much, quite a few of your standups are good, plus don't be too quick to dismiss you sitcoms. Frasier was a class act, for example. And Arrested Development is great.
