Please spare a thought for PoppaGator. He is, after all, from New Orleans, and therefore not quite in touch with reality.
They also have some very unusual burial customs in his neck of the woods, so M. RePrise's will not seem strange to him.
Mebbe I will make Pops relive his discomfort when I visit next April, after the Mardi Gras, when things will have returned to near (term used advisedly) normal.
Heh heh.
