Will Pitt.....Paging Will Pitt
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 04:43 PM by KzooDem
You were right. I was wrong. They really ARE throwing down already.

NEW ORLEANS — You know a city has legs when three or four dozen of them are parading down Bourbon Street — some clad in tutus and grass skirts — six days after the most damaging hurricane in American history.

2. Ha! I read that one just after
The fundamentalist blame the evil city dwellers for the hurricane. You go New Orleans! I never got to see you, and it was one of my life's goals. Keep alive!

3. They are still emptying the city out.
Just heard on the news that the authorities are planning to get tough with those who are staying so far. First, of course, they will get the ones out of the areas that are the most impacted.

4. That's the spunk that NOLA needs right now!
This is heartwarming, albeit campy, it is simply heartwarming!
