Of course, the key to becoming a disaster millionaire is to strike when the disaster's hot. Take Sunnye Sims, who until three years ago was a meeting-and-events planner living in a $1,025-a-month, two-bedroom apartment in San Diego. Post-9/11, Congress was gushing out domestic security money to well-connected companies, which in turn were subcontracting out the work after taking hefty profits. Sims secured one of those subcontracts to help set up and run assessment centers for airport screeners.

She eventually charged the government $24 million, paying herself $5.4 million in compensation, with a $270,000 pension, and now lives in a stunning $1.9-million hilltop mansion. Auditors recently stated that $15 million in expenses for her company are still unsubstantiated.

Where do I apply for some of that disaster money, appropriately named, DISASTER for every taxpayer. WHEN is FEMA, the Government and all that are "responsible" (responsible?thats a joke), for handing out checks going to start checking out what they are paying for?

(Based on lyrics "It's Raining Men - Weather Girls )

Oh man, this would make a great musical. I can picture Governor Blanco and Mayor Nagin singin' and dancin', leading a chorus of corrupt Louisiana politicians.

It's Raining Money! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Money! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's Raining Money! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Money! Every Specimen!
Crisp, new, green and lean
Gonna build a mansion in New Orleans
