Katy Jokes

I think it's cool that there's a new meme brewing. Houston vs Dallas, LA vs SF, Boston vs NYC... now it's Houston vs Katy. I agree with Eric, this is a great hurricane haiku.
Katy, like bowels,
Always wondering "should we
Evacuate now?"
Hurricane evacuation paranoia was a one-time occurrence, something all of southeast Texas felt after the Katrina and Rita fiascos. It's looking like the 2009 hurricane season will be a dud, and as always there's no reason to haul ass if you live more than 30 miles from the coast.

A tropical storm
forms off the Atlantic coast
And Katy panics.

Humid Katy day,
Joe Bastardi's hurricane
Fizzles out again.

Hot humid hell hole,
30 minutes to Houston,
Katy is my home.

Confused by storm clouds.
Should I stay or should I go?
I'll ask the Sci Guy.

What's a hurricane?
Some kind of stormy weather?
No earthquakes however.

Dark clouds coming in
Wind speed up to one hundred
Time to panic now.

Should I stay or go?
Where's Neil Frank when you need him?
I'll just hunker down.

Storm blowing in fast,
Reporters spout nonsense
And stand in the rain.

tedtam said...

Hurricane on map,
News people create panic
Storm moves somewhere else.

tedtam said...

These are fun!


Big wind blows over,
Families did not prepare,
Demand to be fed.


I must stop now, I could do these all day...

Category five
Moving up the ship channel
Katy's in Lubbock

Rob Dawg said...

The storm on the plains
Causes forecasters much pain
As it is just rain.

Dan from Madison said...

Wisconsin weather,
No hurricanes ever here,
Winter does suck though.

Ferocious mood swings
Bipolar disorder sucks
Just look at Serin.

I've swam with dolphins.
Skydiving does not scare me.
But hurricanes do.

National health care.
Mandatory flu vaccines.
Time to flee Katy?

Wow, it's been a long time since I've tried a Haiku. What's the subject, Katy vs. Houston? Let's see:

Metro-driven crime,
Poor management leadership?
Katy is an escape!

Good education
Combined with cheap tract housing:
Hooray, common sense!

Houston Citizen
Without breeding mocks that which
Exceeds his sad grasp.
