Great Idea! Just make sure that any ordinances passed require an electric motor so that the citizens of NOLA don't have to work too hard rowing.

Certainly some poor downtrodden black residence's property has been robbed by the elitist racists rich white people in order to "whiten" Chocolate City.

Oh wait it's LIBERAL white people.

Perhaps Brad will sponsor a contest for the safest, most environmentally friendly lawn mower? Or perhaps he'll advocate against mowing lawns because it hurts the environment's feelings? If only he'd advocate against mowing lawns because it wastes a perfectly good Saturday afternoon when you could be resting in an air-conditioned house on one's comfy beer stained sofa watching others work hard at your favorite game. Or best of all, maybe Brangellina will pay some of the poor destitute residents of NO to mow your lawn? That way everyone wins.

to the energy cost reduction goals in the competition could save residents as much as $50 million.
Pitt initially contributed $100,000 to help underwrite the contest. It was announced Thursday that he contributed another $100,000 to help cover prize money. The winning team will get $75,000 and two others — Fred Schwartz of Schwartz Architects in New York and Steve Dumez of Esckew-Dumez-Ripple in New Orleans — will receive $7,500 and certificates of excellence.

So why hasn't he donated any of his hard earned $$$ towards building these homes, rather than the contest for designing them - and the winners being in Chicago and NY. Aren't there architechs left in NO?
Seems like a waste....

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will be frequent visitors to the city observing the progress.

Well, it's about time!

I'm sure that things will be much better, now that the beautiful people grace them with their presence.

What a couple of assholes.

Like who cares what these two have to do or say. That's what I can't understand about these celebs. These publicity hounds want nothing more to be thought of as experts on something when all they really have are publicity machines.

Oh thank God! I thought it was going to be Goldie and Kurt overseeing the rebuilding. Now I know that with Brad and Jolie, I no longer have to pray to see the city rebuilt! Because I know they will gladly sell their multi-million dollar mansions and move there, invest and personally see to it that they don't appear to be the steaming pile of hypocritical PR opportunists that they currently seem to be!

Boy, me too. You can't imagine how many sleepless nights I have spent worrying about what Brad and Angelina are doing to pass the time.

Next time they want another headline, they can come by my house and watch the grass grow on my lawn...

From what I've heard about Brad Pitt, he's more likely to smoke it than watch it grow.

I hope some crusty ol' yat gives them a hammer or something to actually help in the cleanup. Of course the donations are appreciated but if they're going to be there anyway at least be prepared to work.
