Chocolate City profiteering
Read this before you buy one of those Ray Nagin Willy Wonka Chocolate City T-Shirts. Hurricane Katrina victims deserve better. New Orleans deserves better. Those who seek financial rewards by disseminating language and imagery which promotes social division are passing a heavy debt onto society. Become a part of the solution, not part of the problem.

What's with all those links?? You're a funny man :-)
Your Mama
It's a Google bomb -- do a search for "Willy Wonka Chocolate City T-Shirts" and you'll end up here -- my way of throwing a wrench in the works.
Well, it was working for a while. It seems that the search engines have ways of foiling the Google bombs.
I know a lot of people looking for chocolate city t-shirts found their way here and stayed for long enough to read something, so maybe I persuaded some people to think differently about the issue, and to care about New Orleans.
Yep, what Schroeder said. TIme to googlebomb.
OK, my typepad is choking so no googlebomb.
Here's what I think: the photoshopped image obviously came from a copyrighted image of Nagin, and a copyrighted image from the Willy Wonka movie.
Sue the bastards, and the money goes to rebuild NOLA.
