Too soon to be making New Orleans jokes?

I'm at rice - we played the Tulane football team and beat them (our only victory this year).

Rice fans generally get drunk and go stand behind the other team's bench and yell stuff at them, but at this game a group of people that were significantly more drunk than I was were chanting "underwater." I was laughing, but I thought it was in bad taste.
 
DId the Bucs really play that? If so, fvcking hilarious!

I can't wait for the Katrina folks go the hell home. I liked my city (Houston) before - you know - without the 30% rise in murder rate.
 
Nah, not really. Making fun of tragedy is how a lot of people cope.

More importantly, if we can't make fun of Katrina, the terrorists have truly won.
 
A week after New Orleans sank into the water, my friend was in a SCBA class and the instructer asked where they wanted to go diving once they got certified. My friend blurted out "New Orleans" and he got a dirty look, but a laugh at the same time...
