Houston? We have a problem.

I took his post at face value, and have no opinion about whether Houston is or isn't on the coast. At this juncture, I would like to refer to shrimping again, because it amuses me. Thank you. My reasons for thinking that Houston is not a big-time target do not relate to its proximity to open water, as is also the case for non-big-time targets Honolulu, San Diego, Seattle, New Orleans, Tampa, Miami, Baltimore, and Boston, to name a few. YMMV.

Unrelatedly, I offer this joke:
  • Q. How many neocons does it take to screw in a light bulb?

    A. Neocons don't bother with light bulbs. They declare a War on Darkness and set the house on fire.
