OH, but dontcha know, we didn't have levees...lol.
I recall watching a clip from CNN right before the levees broke. A pastry chef was passing out little slices of cheesecake on Bourbon Street. They were high fiving that MS got the brunt of the storm and not them.
LOL! Well that's true. But you don't have a whiny, incompetant governor in the governor's mansion either. :)
The morning AFTER the storm, Shep Smith (who spent a great deal of time yelling about the lack of resources...the first time I have lost respect for Shep) was interviewing folks on Bourbon Street who had ridden out the storm and were having breakfast on the Bourbon! I love how everyone wants to feed retrospective knowledge up a long chain of incompetence at the local and state government.
