It’s storm season now... hurricanes, tropical storms, you name it! Speaking of naming it, have you ever wondered how they come up with the names of those hurricanes?
For instance, take Hurricane Katrina, how did they get that name? My guess would be that the name is a meteorologist’s wife name. The guy must have had a big argument with his wife Katrina the night before the hurricane started to develop. He got his revenge by naming the hurricane after her.
I can also see the hurricane naming strategy being changed pretty soon. Bush’s government will start naming hurricanes after popular terrorists. So we will start hearing of the devastation cause by “Hurricane Osama” and the countless homes destroyed by “Tropical Storm Saddam.”
I wonder if they would step up the US alert level, if Hurricane Osama was brewing somewhere in the Mexican Gulf. But then again, they could always attack the Gulf of Mexico pre-emptively, and stop the breeding of more terrorist hurricanes.

hey omar, thats a funny comment about hurricane osama, I think the way they name hurricanes is that starting from the earliest hurricane that was ever named and name it after a female name by the letter 'a', then it increases alphabetically every time there is one(now days it seems like every year), so you can see there is quite a few major hurricanes already, with the initial 'k'.
According to this rate, they should run out of name pretty fast.
But when there it comes the the letter 'o' would be a funny name for it, lol, too bad it is not a girl's name.
