Looks like Gustav is heading to Louisiana. Bobby Jindal, do us proud. I'd feel a lot better, though, if Ray Nagin, the King of "Chocolate City", wasn't still running the show in New Orleans. I'm praying for all ya'll in the Gulf, including my favorite Cajun blogger. I've also got one eye on Hanna.
When hurricanes come, I always think of the Breton fisherman's prayer I read in my childhood:
Dear God, be good to me;
The sea is so wide,
And my boat is so small.
We are slightly west of the hurricane's course. I have no desire to get any closer.
