Apologies for going slightly off-topic, but John's post reminded me about this: when Ike Turner passed away earlier this year, the always-tasteful NEW YORK POST offered this headline: "IKE 'BEATS' TINA TO DEATH". I.e., he died first, so he "beat her to death", geddit?
I mean, talk about "making light", right? They managed to trivialize a person's death AND the issue of domestic violence. And yet, dammit, on some level you can't help but stand in awe of it.
Wow. I wouldn't have thought you'd even see that kind of a headline in The Onion!
I was referring to Scheluse's last sentence and maybe thinking that some paper screwed up and printed something like that. That actual headline is crazy, really insensitive and kind of funny all at the same time!
I have a brother in Miami and an Aunt in the Rio Grande Valley, so I watch the weather during hurricane season closely. I'm sorry Houston got hit this time.
No need to apologize, schleuse, you are doing an excellent work in HOA (and all the previous games) even in the most adverse situations. From a part of the world (Mediterranean sea) in wich hurricanes and earthquakes simply never happen (well, forest fires and floods sadly yes) I simply can’t think about the ever provisional feeling of the people living in areas with hurricanes happening periodically. I’m really glad to know that you and your family haven’t suffered important damages.
