And I quote:

"The system that hit Rayne quickly moved east and drenched New Orleans, where several Mardi Gras parades either were delayed, started earlier or canceled because of the severe weather."

Who wants to bet some high-on-his-horse-and-paint-thinner Southern Baptist preacher is going to attribute this to Lord Almighty and His distaste for "sinful debauchery" (which is bullshit anyway. Jesus, according to legend, was mighty quick to restock booze when it ran out)?

No way I'm taking so obvious a losing bet!

I've had communion, that guy must've been loaded 24/7.

I'll take that bet. $5.99 GOG? What are the rules of the wager (confirmation, how far it gets up the news outlet food chain, etc)?

He protested at first, no doubt thinking of the huge amounts of SIN that will lead to. Luckily, his mother knew better.

I always thought it was weed that Jesus went for. After all did he not say: "let he who is without sin get stoned first"?

How about this - a bet on which fanatical side gets attributed first. The Lord Almighty or global warming.

That's usually a photo finish anyway.

I'm going to bet on the dark horse and say gov't-controlled weather machines.

I'm rolling double-or-nothing, that Al Gore is behind the global-warming machines.

The conspiracy web is getting big now. That would be like having the virus and the vaccine. Would those machines happened to be nicknamed Gray Death I wonder?

I found the attached picture to cause a small chuckle from me.

I was thinking more like "Weather Control Satellites", and less of that "atmospheric conditioning nanobot cloud" stuff.
