WBRZ just showed video of the French Quarter empty, and then some of downtown...

the only people hanging out looked like the looters.

If you drank a shot before dissing TK, you're good.

"Just make sure to let those doggies keep ya from wanderin' around in the rain, ok ?"

Yup. We're all set and the doggies are all tucked in. We're in a hurry up and wait mode.

Conservaties sometimes go that extra little bit to live up to the dull and humorless stereotype. :-)

As for me, I have a good sense of humor!

Yeah, a lot of people with family in the area, from the area, or who just have fond memories of visiting take some comfort in remembering the good times in light of impending disaster. I don't think it diverts from the seriousness of the moment. If some people need a recipe to help cope, I say give it to them.

So how's this for a fried okra recipe:

2 to 3 cups okra, sliced 1/4 inch thick,
1 green tomato chopped,
1 onion chopped,
1 to 2 banana peppers chopped,
approximately 1/2 cup of white corn meal,
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil.

Dredge together all vegetables with corn meal and black pepper. Heat cast iron skillet with olive oil, then add ingredients. Fry over hot stove, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (some will blacken). When done, pour into bowl lined with paper towel to absorb any oil remnants. Each person can salt his own serving to taste.

To die for!

Especially considering that NO's facilities and hospitals are going to be out of order, probably for weeks at least. The rest of the country can take up the slack, and there will be slack, no two ways about it.

The 2136 Vortex plot averages with the 1255, 1538, and 1731 plots to produce landfall on a line from the present position to 5.7 miles due west of Houma.

The 2136 and 1731 plots may give subtle indication of a northward turn, and produce a line which passes 4.1 miles east of Houma.

Speaking of recipes, everybody just grab a barley sandwich and chow down! Too bad I don't have my mom's recipe book with me. If y'all love red beans, shrimp corn soup is to die for!

Looks like my cousins in Pensacola are safe for now. I hope. I pray most of the people in New Orleans get out.

There are some here that know much more than me. Not sure why this thread seems pretty empty of them though.
