7. Gotta love this quote from McGrammps..... |

“It wouldn’t be appropriate to have a festive occasion while a near tragedy or a terrible challenge is presented in the form of a natural disaster.”
Too bad he didn't give a tinkers damn about appropriateness 3 years ago when he and *asshole* celebrated his birthday while people drowned.
