Galveston County Daily News mocks media storm hysteria

Here's an excerpt from a fun post on the Galveston County Daily News blog:

You know how they used to tell you in elementary school that no question is a stupid question? That's not true.

At this morning's press conference, dominated by Houston television stations, one cameraman asked Mayor Lyda Ann Thomas how high the tides had to get before the city closed the Causeway. She really was momentarily speechless. Charlie Kelley, the city's emergency management coordinator, broke the silence by laughing.

If the tides get that high, the city has a lot more to worry about than closing the Causeway.

Nicely done!
