Me and my coffee klatch were all sitting in PJ&#8217;s after Mass at St. Patrick&#8217;s and we were all still reeling from the feeling of the tidal wave of emotions the hurricane had rendered and all of us were quietly trying to put [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Harry Shearer, best known for his voices on The Simpsons especially the evil industrialist Mr. Burns as well as appearances in mockumentaries such as Best in Show, is a resident of New Orleans.

		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; Continued from Part 1 Third. The people that suffered in the city were only poor blacks. This was encouraged of course by the news media who always like to focus on the disadvantaged and the underdog simply because it makes for conflict and drama. Good television.

		<description><![CDATA[I just discovered this video on YouTube. It&#8217;s something called auto-tune the news. And halfway through we actually see Drew Brees and Bobby Jindal break into song. I thought it would be appropriate in light of the five year anniversary of Katrina, and acknowledgement of just how far our city has come since what we [...]]]></description>

Although Ida passed us by a couple days ago we still got the trees blowin&#8217; and cool air flowin&#8217;. Don&#8217;t get me wrong the cool air is nice and all.

		<description><![CDATA[New Orleans has a long and storied history of architecture and architectural preservation. In fact folks come here just to see our architecture. Why? Because it&#8217;s beautiful, it&#8217;s classic, it&#8217;s quaint, it&#8217;s not American. And very much a part of the Caribbean.
