I take a certain amount of pleasure from natural and man-made disasters. The tsunami of 2004? Sweet. Katrina? Even better. I want to see pictures of shanty towns torn down and anguished crowds. I do get a little sad when I see pictures of mansions and museums in ruins, because to be honest, a set of Roman clay pots or a historic library is probably worth more than most peoples' lives. When New Orleans flooded, I was more worried about the houses, plantations and museums than whether everyone was able to find safety and sanctuary.

Basically, if an atomic bomb accidentaly dropped out of a plane and into a full stadium, I'd think it was awesome and not at all a travesty or horrible. Especially if said stadium was full of Bengals fans. Football is boring.
