Anybody got any spare change?

New Orleans is worth rebuilding ~NO Bull

Written right after evacuation, before Summit~I learned that the people who invented the "New Orleans, Proud to Crawl Home" bumper stickers had created a sustainable slogan, because they always will.

~Many miss out on text warnings

Mayor Nagin's joke not funny to Ike evacuees~Ya know what the kicker in this is ..... I have a friend that works in a large restuarnt chain in Houston and when the people from NO came here to avoid Mr. G - they asked for the NO evacuees discount - "we got one last time we evacuated here don't we get one this time" and the resturant did it!!!!
