ccording to The Washington Post, The President just said that Congress had reach a bi-partisan agreement on the infrastructure bill. All I can say is that is about damn time.
If ever there was a city in need of infrastructure repair it’s New Orleans.
You are looking at one of two drawbridges that cross the Intracoastal Waterway connecting the rest of the city to the Lower 9th Ward and locations further downriver.
Look at it. At the time when I made this picture it had been painted and it’s already rusty.
There are really three points made in this picture. Both drawbridges should be replaced with something modern. The Intracoastal Waterway — known locally as MR-GO — should be closed because it brought the water from everywhere that destroyed the Lower 9th Ward.
Finally, see that concrete structure on the right side of the picture? That’s the new levee built after the old one was broken in many places allowing the water from MR-GO to food and destroyed the Lower 9th Ward.
Now, about the potholes in my street.

nce again WordPress has made it way too hard to do anything with this block system. It will be the thing that finally drives me away.
I’m sure that I did it. At least what those fine morons at WordPress will claim.
Yes, WordPress if you are reading, I just called you morons. I’m sorry if I offend anybody with this next line, but leave the fucking thing alone.
They created some way of trapping copy with a blue box. You cannot edit anything in the box. If you hit the delete key, the paragraph is removed. The box continues to move upward deleting and deleting.
The only work around that I could figure out is to go back to a saved draft and use that.
Of course, this means all of the categories and tags are removed. If you schedule posts as I do, that is removed as well.
Moving is looking better and better.
Life is way too short.
