Over at Nobody's Business, Rogier van Bakel links to a rap song about disaster preparedness that lays down these phat lines:
Disaster, it can happen anywhere,
But we've got a few tips, so you can be prepared.
For floods, tornadoes, or even a 'quake
You've got to be ready, so your heart don't break.Disaster prep is your responsibility.
And mitigation is important to our agency.People helping people is what we do.
And FEMA is there to help see you through.
When disaster strikes, we are at our best.
But we're ready all the time, 'cause disasters don't rest.
The song is online at FEMA's "kidz" site here; audio here. Latest version of RealPlayer--and an incredibly dark sense of humor--required to listen.
