Remember those? Of course the Iraq war is uncatchable for this award, but I think this deserves mention anyway

Damn!!

I could have used some of that at my BarBQ week before last too!!

Only after all this time, it probably isn't consumable..

Which reminds me. I need to dump and refill my ice trays. And soon!

No, it's not. So after 12.5 million dollars worth of storage fees, it's being melted...

Not to sound like a bleedin' heart liberal here-but imagine what 12.5M could have accomplished if given to a school district...

$12.5 million is the SALARY for about 300 taxpayers.

Leave it to the US government to piss away our money.

I guess I'm more familiar with Senator Proxmire's "golden fleece" than the golden hammer. Anyway, Harry Shearer, he of Spinal Tap fame, has been blogging about New Orleans and the aftermath of Katrina. Here's his latest about the recent "report" from the Army Corps of Engineers.
