Police Officers Saved By Bush

[Analog]

WAVELAND, Mississippi (AP) -- For five hours, 14 members of Waveland's police department held on desperately to a spindly bush as they watched the town they swore to protect being torn apart by Hurricane Katrina.

Debris shot past them; tin roofs fired up into the air; a shrimp boat swept past in churning sea waters as they clung to the 8-foot-tall bush.

Blasted by a storm surge some say was 30 feet high Monday morning, Waveland got some of the worst of Katrina. (Full story)

Three days later, the anemic-looking, red-tipped bush in front of the police department has become a shrine to Waveland's men and women in blue.

There's now a hand-carved wooden cross placed in the bush to highlight its role in a remarkable story of survival.

True. 75% of the time you cut and paste the content of your threads.

Why not just admit that you saw the word "Bush," failed to read the article, and made a knee-jerk assumption that it was about the president?

I mean, that's better than insulting the OP because you made a stupid fscking mistake, right?

Because it was a title.

Article titles are always capitalized.

He saved a police officer? What! Well, I'm certainly glad I didn't vote for him!









































Because I'm Canadian. 😀

Anywho, welcome to a classic example of the "Skoorb Effect."

Enjoy!

Here I was thinking they were hanging out in a nudie bar and were so enamored by bush of the female kind they never went out into the storm and were saved. 😛

Great story, but how can you not have a picture of said bush?

Yay for cretins replying before reading the thread...

To be fair, this is news, and technically the N in P & N does stand for news. I'm surprised Nik isn't in every thread like this posting wrong forum. I guess its just wrong forum when the post bothers him 😛

What's the skoorb effect anyway?

No. You are wrong again. I've been noting that YF has been posting nothing but copy/paste news articles for some time. I fail to see any 'mistake', but swear at me all you like if your vocabulary has been exhausted already.

Ask Amused which forum this should go into. His red-mist has got the better of him.

The Skoorb Effect: It's when you post a moot trite judgement based comment at the end of a long thread without reading the thread despite the fact that the thread has already discussed and moved on from your point.

Can someone remind most of the people in this thread what the N in P&N stands for?

I did not reply to the OP because I thought it was Political, but whatever, flame on. My suits zipped up nice and tight.
