The World

With so much going on in the world I am sorely tempted to post some political screeds about Our Glorious Leader and his choice for the Supreme Court or the Greek financial crisis or any number of similar things. But I'm not going to do it! What amazing restraint! ;-)

    I'm so proud of you. I have been tempted to vent also but I do it in the privacy of my home when I am alone for the most part. Of course I have to be ever aware that the Lord hears me and even when I don't speak out loud He knows my thoughts. Oh my, forgive me Lord.

Nothing subversive about sipping a little Darjeeling, eh wot? Nothing to see here, Miss Napolitano. Anyway, our local festivities were held at Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metairie. There were literally thousands of people crammed into the neutral ground (though on that day, the ground was anything but...), as cars and trucks poured by the busy boulevard laing on their horns in support. Here are pictures. And like every such gathering in our environs, there was even a brass band and an improptu "second line" parade. It was a "party" after all. But it was a party with a serious reason. The crowds were so overwhelming that it was hard to hear the speakers, and unfortunately, we did have a fe...
