NEW YORK - Traveling by boat and wading through foul-smelling water, Harry Connick Jr. surveyed the damage by Hurricane Katrina to his father's New Orleans home.
It wasn't as bad as Connick had feared. "It looks like pop's house made it through," he said. "Everything looks like it's pretty dry."
Connick returned to New Orleans Monday, a trip documented for NBC's "Today" show and aired Tuesday. He had traveled to the city last week.
His father, Harry Connick Sr., served as district attorney of New Orleans for 29 years before retiring in 2003. Last week, the 37-year-old jazz singer said all of his immediate family were safe.
Like many, Connick wanted to return to protect his family's house: "I don't want to get looted by the one-eyed rogue crackhead out there."

Priceless quote! Still wondering if his alleged 'sympathy' for looters is true.

Harry obviously needs counseling for his "rogue rage".

As a one-eyed rogue...I'm offended :)

From what I've seen, Connick could give lessons to Sean Penn on how to plug a boat before shoving off, or how to actually leave room in your boat to rescue people instead of filling it full of your entourage to make certain it's all recorded and you get credit for "caring". Good for you, Mr. Connick!

From what I've seen, Connick is the real deal; the anti-Hollywood celeb. He blasted the Mayor of NO for leaving and he's been on the ground since the beginning

No, he hates people with one eye.Sadly, this has been all too common throughout history. Maybe it's the horn. Too much?
To: tfecw
Or maybe he is a monoculophobist.

Sounds like he's got the title for his new album.
To: Jokelahoma
He's a N.O. boy through and through. I applaud him for trying to help- and blasting that Nobhead Nagin.
