   Humm now you have me wondering.  I thought I had heard all the jokes   
   possible.  All I know is that everyone is cleaning up.  We have such a   
   diverse culture here, you see many from all sorts of cultural backgrounds.   
      
   Not that I am a racist either, but I nearly fell out of my chair yesterday.   
   The French minister of Culture, the director of the Louvre were also in town   
   yesterday.   France has given hundreds of thousands to New Orleans for arts   
   and schools.  We will get 50 pieces from the Louvre for our muesum, on loan   
   of course, and they will help with rebuilding homes, and fundraisers for   
   artists and muscians.   
      
   On the Charles and Camilla appearance; ppl were asked why they came out to   
   see them, and replies were.....   
      
   "to get a glimpse of the middle age couple whose romance became the longest   
   running soap opera"   
      
   "beats tearing out drywall"   
      
   On that note, Im off to have another cup of coffee, lol.
