Man Louisiana just can’t catch a break.

They get torn up by Katrina and Rita in 2005,
They get spilled on by BP last year.

And now this?

Reine, I know southerners are resourceful people but by golly It’s hard to believe you keep coming back from this stuff (full disclosure: I live on the MS coast).

Aha! Then you know how it is.

I have a story about a lady who from MS, after Katrina, whe finally got into her neighborhood to see her house.

She said on the way into the neighborhood, devastation all around her, as they approached her street, she started digging in her handbag for her house keys. And then pulled into her driveway, saw nothing standing, and wondered to herself why she thought she would need her housekeys! Force of habit …
She was in good humor and laughing at herself as she related this story.
