According to my husband, the biggest thing people outside of New Orleans ask about is the recovery here...and the implication in the question is that we are still on some Godforsaken frontier here.<br /><br />However, I myself would like for this place to be further along in four years and a tad less dependent on events such as this to get money flowing for all.Leigh C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13654596932726420097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19896356.post-23486972758317833582009-05-24T08:37:09.447-05:002009-05-24T08:37:09.447-05:00Perhaps having the Superbowl means that the rest o...Perhaps having the Superbowl means that the rest of the country is losing its misconceptions about New Orleans.saintseesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05674271080347529416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19896356.post-81237197356983392532009-05-24T00:18:40.101-05:002009-05-24T00:18:40.101-05:00Now Mark, don't hold back.

Another one that p...Now Mark, don't hold back. Yes.<br />Another one that puts a flea up my pants leg is that: the Citizens are too stupid (read poor colered etc) to have any control over their mayor or city council, let alone the Corps of Engineers, that Nola is a buyer's market for bulk real estate development, what the hell...enough. Jeez Louie, it ain't like we enjoy sand in our summer snowballs ya'know?<br /><br />Hey Mark, I read your book again. Just as fun the 2nd ride through. <br />Gave that one away too so will have to get another. That is half the fun too though. If you do another reading(s) would you let me know please, via email from profile?<br /><br />Liprap! You cat. Howz'yer hammer hangin? Hope the family is well too.<br />I had to miss all the festivals this year, but we covered them on da'Ladda. I'm just tired is all, wo'out truth be told. The city... the corps... grrr<br />so I come over here to find something to make me feel better. It always works for me, the Line. <br />Thanks youz,<br />EditillaNew Orleans Ladderhttp://noladder.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19896356.post-89527523948463329172009-05-23T09:15:17.740-05:002009-05-23T09:15:17.740-05:00No, what Pasquarelli means is the lingering percep...No, what Pasquarelli means is the lingering perception--routinely circulated by our enemies abroad--that we are a hell hole, Baghdad on the Bayou with monumental corruption and a crime problem that rivals road side bombs for impact, the views of the big bad NBA players who are afraid to come to New Orleans lest their limousines hit a pothole and spill their champagne.Mark Folsehttp://toulousestreet.netnoreply@blogger.com
