War on Butterflies

2003-09-29 22:50:15.700372+02 by ebwolf 0 comments

After recent damages due to hurricaine Isabel in North Carolina, President George Bush declares war on butterflies:

"In 1963, meteorologist Edward Lorenz said that a butterfly flapping it's wings in Japan caused a hurricaine on the other side of the planet. We can't have these lawless insects possessing such weapons of mass destruction. The Texas Air National Guard will begin spraying the island of Japan with DDT this week."

(Note: This is a joke.)
