Another post about the news media.
1). Today they focused in on a side of the Katrina victims I can appreciate. A woman who's pralines business is open again and has evolved to help feed the community since there isn't enough tourists to support her original business. To her and those like her I say thank you for not sitting on your butt waiting for someone to hand you something. You are what our country is suppose to be about.
2). Can you believe that in this day and age we still are finding new animals? (Albeit ugly ones.) I wonder: were they always there and we just found them - or - is this truly a new creature? I won't say evolve but mayhaps a cross breed or a mutation?
3). Here's yet another link. Is anyone shocked by the fact that people go a little wild at spring break? The graphic is my favorite. Who paid for drinks. 64% said guys they didn't know bought them drinks. 37% said they bought themselves or a bartender bought them drinks and 24% said that there was booze sponsored by a beer or alcohol company. Where are these people going that there is all this free booze. Sign me up! Ok, sign me up after lent.
Yes, I neglected to mention I gave up alcohol for lent. Rather brave undertaking, but I think there is only one or two days scheduled during which I'll be a bit pouty that I can't participate.
4). (Before I get way off topic) NFL owners meeting - no labor contract. One thing to say here. If they went without their precious foolsball there would be riots in the freaking streets. Aren't these the same people who mocked and ridiculed the NHL for their issues last season? Yes, many of them are. Sadly a long term delay for the NFL will never happen, but I'd love to see it.

I think the NHL thing was mocked mostly because of the lack of interest from the general public that there was no hockey, not the actual labor dispute.
Go Whalers!
