lol! Now I really wish I'd saved the pic mware was using! :)
I guess that tomorrow night these pictures will be what New Orleans "used" to look like:

Godspeed to all in New Orleans and any other locale affected by this hurricane. I'll be following this closely. Hundreds of millions of people in the US, Canada and around the World will be praying for all affected souls.
Moore tornado went five miles north of where I live -- Norman had no damage but we were surrounded by damage.
That tornado damage is going to look small compared to this hurricane hitting over night.
The Red Cross here in Norman had cars there this afternoon which is highly unusual. Imagine they will be leaving sometime tomorrow to help out.
I'll hand em their arse. :-)
I haven't made up my mind on that, as weird as that sounds. I lived through Charley, Frances and Jeanne last year, and remember all too well how badly the media over-hyped the death and destruction. They seemed positively giddy about reporting that people were going to have their homes blown into kindling. So I do think they're doing this again.
But then I look at the forecasts and the data on this monster, and I just don't know. Charley was the worst of the three storms for me last year, and it was a baby compared to this thing, depsite the unbelieveable damage it did down in SW Florida.

Why are you ruining a perfectly good receipe with tomato? I love tomatoes, but on the side.
Not a vacation - he is there to report. Fox even reported when he was enroute into the city.
My guess is he is there for the overnight live work (if they have equipment working)
Will see how high the water gets and how long the cams are on. Man, I hope these newscasters are all wrong.
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info and for the story of the dolphins being kept safe.
</i>and believe me, cajuns LOVE to talk about food</i>
Amen. Probably the reason LA is in the top 5 fattest states.
Man, there is some seriously expensive merchandise in the shops in the French quarter... I'm remembering a desk in an antique store priced at $40,000.00 and it was huge.
We can speculate all we want to on the dome. The fact is that those people are in there now and CAN'T move. The best thing we can do now is pray for them.
heheeee!! love it!! : )
How do you make powdered cinnamon all i have is the sticks ?
and Southern weddings and five showers!!!
LOL!!
I thought the Kyoto Treaty banned hurricanes. It must be Jeb Bush's fault for letting it get past Florida...
I have no cajun recipe's -- I am just picking up the ones posted. I live in a BBQ area here in Oklahoma!
