Hey, I hate that expression "My bad". I knew the ex was cheating when she came home one night and was using it.

All that aside, from a post a little bit up, I've lost my Foxnews feed on my cable. I'm still getting local stations, I just can't get Foxnews. I'm having severe withdrawal symptoms.

I was just wondering if Shep Smith is still reporting down in the Quarties Francais.

I don't know about Shep, but I have decided Orlando is on my favorite list, more so than before.

I will now and forever think of him as Orlando "Swing it around, Ted" Selenes.

In every single report he says "Swing the camera around" at least twice. He even had it swing to a sleeping Steve Harrigan LOL!

Besides, he wears a Hookies cap.

Pardonez-moi! My Bad!

Shep reported last night. I haven't seen him this morning; he's probably sleeping. One of the cable stations reported they were advised to stay off the streets because of the looters downtown. A nurse from Tulane U. Hospital described seeing guys in pickups with lots of guns a la Mogadishu driving around (like in a 'technical'). They'd rob cameramen in a flash if they caught them! Before that scene gets too far along, they have to get people out of there. There are 37,000+ troops in the State Guards of the three states to deal with the situation, once it's made safe to enter.

I have been watching CNN this morning (yeah, I know, but the F&F crew has been infuriating through this crisis). John Zarella and Jeanne Meserve are both in the Vieux Carre, but we've only heard from them both via telephone.

That's not a good sign.

Anybody hear anything lately from Molly Hennenberg? Last I heard, she was at the Hyatt downtown as well.
