Morning-I'm leaving soon in my (hopeful) quest to end Friday's workday by 1 or 2 this afternoon-
Despite Nagin's tenebrific speeches
And Blanco's lachrymose act
Tourists are needed for money-
They can't deny that fact
So the French Quarter will re-open
Despite the lugubrious speeches
By Landrieu, Blanco and all the rest
Of the state's political leeches
Perhaps a compelling reason
For all the saturnine faces
Is fed control to keep funding
Out of secret and nasty places...
Excellent, Tex!!
