Hurricane Katrina was a Catagory 5 Hurricane that missed the city of New Orleans by 20 miles, yet caused massive flooding of 80% of the city (up to 25 feet deep) and may/will be the most costly natural disaster in the USA.
All of the Inner-Loop hotels in Houston, Texas where overbooked due to Hurricane Katrina.

Costs of the hurricane are estimated to be from 15-80 Billion USD

One nasty motherfucking hurricane. Went and walked all over New Orleans.

A natural disaster that was made 10 times worse by an incompetent Federal response, and the fact that most of the National Guard is now in Iraq. A natural disaster that shows that our worthless stooge of a President is totally incapable of the job people voted him in for.
Hurricane Katrina caused part of the misery, the Bush adminstration provided the rest.

An event which pointed out that President George Walker Bush is mentally challenged. We should keep in mind that the President's imperfections, situated at www.dubyaspeak.com, clearly show that he might actually have an IQ of a peanut. So in respect to this, the country's reponse time, in my opinion, tends to be VERY slow. In other words, The Homeland Security should have raised the "terrorist threat" to red already!!!

Some form of weather phenomenon that allows people to live in domed structures and urinate on floors.

Can also be used as an excuse for looting and raping, but only in America.

"I really need a slash, a shag and a new telly."

"Right, just tell the police that a Hurricane Katrina hit your house. You can slash on the floor, nick a telly and then rape your neighbours."
