First Entry

HEELLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright, let's get this thing cracken. First things first, what to expect from my blog: I dunno, you tell me. Expect the unexpected. And beyond, at least that's what my initial motive is. I will post my thoughts for the day, and they may vary from sports, to music, economics, technology, nothingness, whatever.

I am running short on time, so I thought I would kick it off with a link. Please take the time to read the full post from HornetsHype.com:

Don’t tell me what my city needs and does not need. You weren’t there. You came to party, but you didn’t want the baggage. You weren’t there with the doors hanging open and banging in the wind, up and down an eerily empty street littered with debris. You weren’t there when the traffic lights didn’t work for a year. You weren’t there when the Saints scored a touchdown 90 seconds into the first home game after Katrina, and a whole city leapt up in unison, and it meant something.

In the wake of Gustav, many of us were praying New Orleans be spared from another tragedy. It is very hard for me to comprehend what took place three years ago, both spiritually and emotionally. To live through Katrina, lose the only place you have called home, feel betrayed by your own country, and still be able to say "New Orleans, I can't quit you" is simply... amazing. Or something. I was just in awe reading that article. Please read it.
