Deadeye dicks

As we mark the year since our hurricanes began in earnest, the accuracy of FEMA's purposive activity is still capable of making news. The agency, it is reported,
used hurricane aid money to pay funeral expenses for at least 203 Floridians whose deaths were not caused by last year's storms, the state's coroners have concluded.

The deaths include a Palm Beach Gardens millionaire recovering from heart surgery who died two days before Hurricane Frances; a Miami baby not yet born when the storm arrived; and a Port Charlotte man who died of cirrhosis and heart failure five months after Hurricane Charley.

In two other cases, coroners could find no record of the people dying.
"Good afternoon. I'm quite sure I'm dead. May I have please some money?"

"APPROVED."
Ten people were not in Florida at the time of their deaths, including Brant Moskowicz, 40, of Boca Raton. He died in a head-on collision Sept. 7 in Ashburn, Ga., when the driver of a Ford Ranger crossed a median and hit his Nissan Altima, according to traffic reports.
More.

Indeed a great hurricane damaged our residence where conscience used to reside. There is no more shame in stealing because we are standing knee deep in shit which smells far worse than our rotten life. Into this world I will bring a child and see it get smothered with shit and it will partake in the great shit carnival of stealing and then for sure it will blame someone else.

Ideals are dead. Children are shaped in the image of the image. My child will be shaped by the Image shaping images.
