I can't help ya there,but you brought back a few memories for me of N.O. Dad loved horse racing.As a kid we would leave Hot Springs (Mom was a waitress)when it got cold (no tourists) in coats and long sleeves,get to New Orleans wearing shorts (people on the streets had furr coats on etc...and thought we were crazy (or poor, LOL).I never will forget the markets or Burben Street (Dad took us through it at around twelve noon )It was really an exciting town for a kid! I had not thought of that in years.... I know this is WAY off topic, but "THANKS", your post just brought a bigger smile to my face than any joke I could read....
