Subject: RE: BS: Just returned from New Orleans, Wow!!
The thing I will always remember about New Orleans is sitting out on the balcony of my hotel room, reading the newspaper, with the most torrential rainstorm going on outside, wondering that I was still in shirtsleeves because it was so darned hot.

And why is the local paper called the Picayune? What's a Picayune?
