Plugging the Dykes

FEMA Director Michael Brown Announces Emergency Dyke Reinforcement for failed New Orleans Levees.

"Effective immediately, a pair of U.S.A.F. Reserve C-5A Galaxy heavy airlift cargo planes have been dispatched to retrieve celebrities Rosie O'Donnell and Ellen DeGeneres, flying them nonstop to New Orleans to be wedged into the failed Ponchatrain Levees." said Brown.

"It is hoped that this pair of world-class dykes will suffice to hold back the flood until such time as lesser dykes such as Janet Reno, Hillary Clinton and Molly Ivins can be brought in as reinforcements."

Director Brown added that the plan may be delayed by an EPA challenge.

"The Environmental Protection Agency though has filed suit to prevent this plan from going into effect, on grounds of cruelty to fish and alligators."

"FEMA will provide regular updates as this plan and court challenges proceed." Brown concluded.

Smoke on the Water will provide updates as they become available.

(and all kidding aside, my sincere prayers and best wishes go to those suffering from Katrina's wrath.  Just thought a bit of LeveeTee might break a needed grin out there, somewhere.)

Now, you've done it. I had a stray thought about the Little Dutch Boy with his finger in the... and nearly threw up!

I'm sorry, my engineering mind is going to have to put a stop to this foolishness: those dyke plugs will FLOAT, and won't stay in the breach long enough to plug those dikes.

To keep them from floating, you would have to plug them to let out the hot air.

No apologies to Fast Richard.

Did you ever shoot a bloated carcass? I did, in my wild yute. Came upon a road-kill deer while driving to an out-of-the-way lake to fish. Shot it up with my Woodsman and watched the bubbles blow....

You get the "coffee spit" award, my friend. Yes, I know it's a good blog entry when I have to wipe coffee off my keyboard, desk and myself.

This is the first entry I've read, but I'm looking forward to purusing the rest of your blog. Who would have thought that typing "bull dyke" into Google Image Search for my own michevious blogging purposes would lead me to such a hilarious entry. Definitely my sense of humor. Good work, and keep it up!
