Hurricane watch

I've heard the pun from a number of colleagues, but few "Katrina and the waves" references have made it on the Web.

We can probably thank the fact that the band is too obscure for most headline writers. (I seriously doubt we can owe it to restraint, given history.)

But, as the exception to the rule, "Katrina and the waves sink MTV" is a bit more appropriate.

Soon it will be winter, and time for Icicle Works references.

It's odd -- Technorati has 778 "Katrina and the Waves" posts, but Google News only has three (two are from overseas). I don't think it's as obscure as editors apparently do.
