We’re heading for NO,LA in a few minutes. We spent yesterday visiting Amy’s extended family, and hearing lots of stories about the last few weeks.
There were plenty of tales about the day-to-day disruptions, the massive lines at the Wal-Mart, the limited menus and lack of napkins at some restaurants, and the like.
On top of that, everyone has stories about people spending Red Cross or FEMA money on TVs and DVD players. Amy came back with a story about a woman who tried buying a TV with her Red Cross money issued on a debit card, then grew irate when told she couldn’t use the card to pay the sales tax.
