In the easy chair with my boots on, Melted whiskey in my hand, I couldn't have been asleep for more than three hours, Time to go to work again

Holy cow I'm pooped. I've got nothing left so I'll make this quick.

You all know about the Saints game on Sunday.

Well, on Saturday, I shot a wedding. (those things are pretty much a full day of work... at least 8 hours, sometimes more)

And today, Terrebonne Parish decided to flood again. No storm or anything. Just some SE Winds combined with high tide put water in houses south of Houma. And get this... Just last week, Terrebonne Parish residents voted AGAINST improving their levees. Sure, they'd have a small increase of sales tax, but one cent is a small price to pay to not have the Gulf of Mexico in your front yard of you ask me. But I'm not registered and I didn't vote so I won't say anything else.

I met a guy today that just kept shouting "I quit! I quit! I give up... you win! I'm moving!" And he had already started packing. I got yelled at quite a bit today... not at me personally, but as part of the media. They just want to be heard, and I can't blame them.

But, if you'd like to see what Misty is doing to help prevent Americas Wetland from dissolving into the Gulf, check this out. It's got some good information on what's going on down here.

anyway, I guess that wasn't to quick hu? Oh well.

-Another Saints photo.... Big D this time... breaking up a pass.



-A baby getting pulled to higher ground. The family went to the store to get some food and when they came back, the water was too high to drive through. So they floated everything to the house.
