(In news about little Miss Cleric - OFUM still be up, and I appear to have recieved a private message at GAFF with some "apology". I shall ponder carefully what to reply, oh yes.)
Fox News Suggests Canadian Katrina Generosity Meant To Embarrass George W. Bush
Gibson asks, "You know uh..Ambassador McKenna um..uh..uh..you know..justlemme uh..have you..uh..lemme address one thing. Uh we know that there's lots of people in Canada on the left side of the political spectrum who don't like George Bush. Is there any..any part of this..big Canadian help designed to..maybe embarrass the President?"
...
And I guess Europe also offered to help because we're eeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil socialists and sniggered evilly in our socialist beards when the hurricane hit. And clearly, all that help during the tsunami was to embarrass Indonesia. There is no such thing as sympathy or compassion.
I'm going to respectfully suggest that if the US government has come out looking bad due to the Katrina rescue effort, it managed that spectaculary on its own.
ETA: CSI makes Fandom_Wank (Or rather, CSI icons.)

Look at your LJ "interests" list. If you have fewer than 50 interests, pick every fifth one. If you have between fifty and seventy-five interests, pick every seventh one. If you have over seventy-five interests, pick every tenth one. If you have fewer than ten, pick all of 'em. List them on your LJ, and tell everyone exactly what it is about these things that interests you so much.
Australia - Well, I lived there. And quite enjoyed the country. It's full of odd creatures, ancient wonders and generally underappreciated stuff. Where else can you find proto-ants that died everywhere else hundreds of billions of years ago?
British humour - I grew up with the likes of Monty Python and Fawlty Towers. It has foreverwarped coloured my impression of what is funny. I love Blackadder, Red Dwarf, Little Britain, The Office, Absoloutely Fabelous... And the British funny writers like Douglas Adams (wail!) and Terry Pratchett.
CSI - One of my current favourite shows. Crime, brainy men, hot men, blood, violence andsex in my head makes that a given.
DVDs - DVDs are shiny. I like shiny. And commentary tracks. And extras. And shiny look of old favourite DVD shows in DVD wrapping.
Fanfiction - I write it. Obvious much?
Goodfic - I snicker and is amused at badfic. But I enjoyed goodfic. There needs to be more.
Hunks - Shallow as I am, I enjoy a good-looking fellow.
Lizards - They're kickass. I've loved lizards (and dragons) since I was young and if I could ever own a blue-tongue lizard, I would be happy. In the meantime I settle for having one tattooed on me.
Mythology - I was brought up in the echoes of Nordic mythology. It reveals a lot about where my people came from and was shaped by - and perhaps all the mythologies do the same for humanity at large.
OFUM - Honestly, this one is more listed because others added it to their interest list and I figured that if anyone did a search on it, my name should be there. So now it is.
Religion - I may not believe in any of the religions, but I still find them fascinating for what they say about humanity.
Silmarillion - Morgoth!
Theatre - I did drama for three years in Upper Secondary school. Great fun. And I still enjoy plays.
Warrick/Catherine - One of my 'ships. He's hot, they both have a certain darkness in them and... Well, I like. Shut up.
