Nagin Sworn in On First Day Of Hurricane Season
...and other calendar anomalies

Ray "Wake Me When It's Over" Nagin was sworn in today for another hitch as the mayor of the Big Easy.

The word is that during the campaign all the buzz in the Nagin camp was 'he stood up to Bush'. You gotta be yankin' me.

This dope (along with that idiot governor, Katie Blanco) froze with panic and did absolutely zip. Yet somehow, everything that went wrong is the fault of Evil Republicans.

But anyhow, I find Nagin's swear-in date falling on the same day of the opening of the 2006 Hurricane Season to be somewhat... odd, to say the least.

And that got me to thinking. Is there a grain of truth in any of the following? I wonder....

1. Bill Clinton testified to the Starr Commission on the same date as 'Cigar Aficionado Day'.

2. Archbishop Weakland was forced to retire on 'Love Your Fellow Man Day'.

3. Ted Kennedy won his most recent election during 'National Bridge Safety Week'.

4. John Murtha's birthday falls on the same date as Vidkun Quisling's.

5. Rosie O'Donnell's show first aired on the 100th anniversary of the founding of Snap-On Tools.
