According to this article, Florida is in the path of yet another hurricane. Yes, this really sucks for Floridans. However, since pretty much everyone by now is making election year jokes, I'm announcing my

Florida Newspaper Headline Contest

Basically, come up with some sort of funny newspaper article headline that has to do with Florida, the hurricanes, and the election this year. Examples (courtesy of Adam, who gave me the idea for the contest):

God Decides the People in Florida are too Dumb to Vote

Florida Residents Vote to Evacuate for Hurricane Season; Recount Expected to Last Til December


Submissions will be judged based on how long they make me and a select panel of judges (read: whomever I can get to listen to them) laugh. Prizes will be worked out later, assuming there are any submissions.

Straight from God to you: Sacrifice Jeb and the hurricanes will stop.

Florida learns the concequences of putting a man who claims to speak for god in the white house.

Natural Diasaster or Karmic Balance Restored? Film at Eleven.

Second Coming of Jesus scheduled for Florida canceled, refused to be in the same state as Jeb.

Posidon demands a fair say, says Yahweh getting too much press.

"President announces Ivan-bin Ladin link, plots to invade upper atmosphere."

The president today announced plans to invade the upper atmosphere in order to capture Ivan, who was behind a wave of destruction across much of the United States. The President is confident that Ivan and his "hurricane" network will be brought to justice.

"For far too long, we've let these so-called "hurricanes" go without any retribution whatsoever. This must stop. This will stop. And by God, I will make it stop!", Bush said at a rally early yesterday afternoon.

The rally-goers, being confused and easily misinformed, greeted his comments with cheers, applause, and the President's staff displaying of signs that said, "Tropical depressions are bad for the economy."

Not everyone was convinced of this latest threat, however. When reached for comment, Sen. John McCain said, "It's a storm. It's an act of God. You can't arrest a weather pattern. God, what a moron. Wait, you're not a lobbyist. Put the damn notebook away. None of this is on the record."

It's clear that no matter what part of the atmosphere Bush decides to invade, we're all going to be blown, one way or another, most likely up.
