From a nytimes.com article about parts of the roof blowing off the New Orleans Superdome:

''I could have stayed at home and watched my roof blow off,'' said one of the refugees, Harald Johnson, 43. ''Instead, I came down here and watched the Superdome roof blow off. It's no big deal; getting wet is not like dying.''

It really shouldn't be funny but it kind of is. Because getting wet isn't like dying. Yes, I am a horrible person finding humor in a weather calamity. I'm sorry.
