Froot:

Alabam"Alum" is of Louisiana descent, which surely explains many of his infinite foibles. He fashions himself an expert on New Orleans and has strongly held opinions thereon. He cwill give you an earful. Throw in questions about sheep buggery, tip stiffery and the 1982 Liberty Bowl and he'll bend your ear for weeks.

Who is the one from the left?

Heller is. The 4 who announced yesterday (Cruz/Paul/Lee/Johnson) all attacked the bill from the right: didn't' go far enough.

Collins and Murkowski are the shakiest moderates although at least a few other like Toomey or Portman could be shaky if the Cruz gang gets too much.

OK cool thanks WhoDean.

Best food anywhere (don't stay in the French Quarter, it is more touristy) get out there and enjoy it!

Go to Mother's for a Po Boy for lunch

Ok I misread the original post, I read it to be 4 total, gotcha.

I'm not sure a pro-trump group thinks running anti-Heller ads is politically sound unless they are just concerned with getting this bill passed. In 2019 you either havery Dean Heller or a Democratic senator.

A police chase ends with a crash near the home of an off-duty cop (who is black). He goes over to help out. Two officers see him approaching, draw their guns on him, and order him down to the ground. They approach and recognize him. As he gets up, a third cop who just arrived shoots him.

Trump had a campaign promise not to cut medicaid, that doesn't seem to be breaking away, it's helping him keep his promise.

Froot,

Do not rent a car. Uber, cab, walk, or trolley everywhere UNLESS you plan to get out of the downtown/FQ/CBD/Garden District for swamp or plantation tours, etc, etc.

As Talent mentioned, it was the place I grew up, and I make 4-5 trips back every year.

If you need specific recs, let me know.

Sitting at SunTrust waiting for the Braves and Brewers to start. Had lunch at a Chinese place in the ballpark named "Intentional Wok" - god, I love bad puns.

In the mom-and-pop-shop category of bad puns, that is particularly pleasing.
