The devastating hurricane which has left the entire eastern seaboard of the United States submerged under thirty fathoms of water has suddenly ceased to exist, having now crossed into the fictional realm of Canada.
Hurricane Irene’s abrupt disappearance from the face of the earth is as rapid as its mysterious appearance out of nowhere - or the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico, as they are also known to a handful of cartographers.

As a pitiable handful of American survivors doggedly dived down to their sunken cities, searching desperately for a hardware store with portable generators in stock, the people of Haiti – which is still largely in ruins three years after being blasted by four hurricanes of such force that they made global headlines, even though they only devastated a third-world backwater whose people are only black – generously dug deep in their pockets to send emergency supplies of chilled Budweiser to the underwater state of Vermont.
“My heart goes out to the suffering white folks on America’s east coast,” said mango farmer Jean-Baptiste Veilleux, who is still searching for the remains of his family. “I am glad to donate a month’s income to alleviate their unimaginable suffering. I only hope that $30 will be enough to satisfy an American family’s urgent need for refreshing, ice-cold beers.”
